I want to turn one page in a document landscape on MS word 2007 and keep the rest portrait?

Im typing up my college coursework and there is a diagram on one page that will be filling a whole page on landscape view. I want to change this page orientation to landscape but keep the rest of the document as a portrait. Everytime I try and do it on the 'format' tab by clicking on 'page orientation' it changes all the pages on the document to landscape.

How do I make it so it is only one page or will I have to create a new document in order to have the one page landscape?

Thanks

Update:

Heya guys I think I figured it out - if you go onto page setup whilst on the page you want to be landscape, click on landscape format, then click 'from here onwards' and then click ok. Go to the next page you want portrait and do the same but for portrait.

Bit of a faff about but it works :)

Thanks everyone :D

    There are multiple ways:

    Your last method can be shortened: Select the part of the text you want landscape, open the page setup dialog (page layout tab) and select landscape. Choose "selected text" from the Apply to drop-down and you're done! Saves you one step ;)

    1) Select the page you want to be landscape. 2) In the menu, do File --> Page Setup 3) Change the orientation from Portrait to Landscape. 4) In the "apply to" window, choose "Selected text." 5) Click OK. You may have to undo and redo the selection a time or two in order to get everything just right and maybe add a page break or two (so that you end up with only one landscaped page), but that will work.

    The one way I know is to insert a section break before that page, and insert another section after.
