Any MS Word Experts Out There?

I've got a LOT of printing to do (a whole books worth). All the docs are formatted for A5 size. As it stands, when I print the pages, they are set up for A4 size, so the pages are only filling part of the page from the top left hand side (giving no indication of the actual page size). I could go and get some A4 sheets cut in half to A5 size (the weight of paper I want to use is not generally available in A5, I've done this in the past but only for a fraction of the work involved now). Then print straight to the A5 sheets.
I'm sure that there must be some way possible that I can set the printout (straight from MS Word) so it would turn the pages sideways, and print out two A5 pages on one A4 sheet. I could then get these cut in half to make the pages I need. I've been through 'page setup', my printer setup, and other settings I thought would be relevent, but I can't seem to work this one out.
Could anyone point me in the right direction please? I reckon there has definately got to be some way of doing this (it's probably staring me in the face, and I can't see it).
Cheers

Set up an A4 page in LANDSCAPE orientation (sideways).
Divide the page into two colums.
Create your text on the left column then copy and paste
or create the next bit of text to the right column so you have two
copies on one page and print like that
Does that make sense0 -

Cheers Alan. This worked perfectly as I need. I would normally work these things out myself, but I've been snowed under with this paperwork. I think my brain had given up on me (gone on strike)!How many surrealists does it take to change a lightbulb?
