i have an excel work sheet that's been created and i want to paste it into a
word document (so i've done this with success) but now it cuts it off because
it should show it landscape so i want to just rotate the insert so that you
can see the whole thing.. how do i do this? can it be done? is there a better
way to do it?

Insert Section Breaks before and after where you want it to appear and
format that Section of the document so that it is in Landscape mode and then
insert the spreadsheet into it.

As an alternative to Doug's suggestion... Assuming that you aren't actually
Linking to the Excel file or have a need to edit the result in Word;

In Office 2003:

Option 1: Select the content in Excel, hold Shift while opening the Edit
menu & select Copy Picture, then paste into the Word document, or

Option 2: Copy the Excel content then in the Word document use Edit> Paste
Special> Picture (Enhanced Metafile).

In Office 2007:

Option 1: Select the Excel content then click the bottom part of the Paste
button, point to 'As Picture' & select 'Copy as Picture'. Choose the
appropriate options in the small dialog (the default settings should be
fine), click OK then Paste into the Word document, or

Option 2: Do as in Option 2 above but in Word click the bottom part of the
Paste button to select the Paste Special command.

Either will give you a graphic which can then be rotated.
