Bill-- 

Interesting. Looks like any trip back to DocumentPreferences after setting the page orientation will reset the orientation to landscape. So you can either reset the orientation after adding the pages, or you can use Document.Pages.Add, which does not cause the problem. 

By the way--instead of checking for the state of optPortraitValue and optLandscapeValue separately, you can simply say: 



If optPortrait.Value = True Then  
   myDocumentPreferences.PageOrientation = idPortrait  
Else 
   myDocumentPreferences.PageOrientation = idLandscape  
End If  




Thanks, 

Ole
