Thanks but . . .
I tried inserting a section break at the end of the cover page and at the
beginning of the first page after the cover page, the page with the beginning
of the content, the page I'd like to have start the page counting but not
have a header itself.

I used continuous break because all the others didn't seem to be the right
kind of break, for one reason or another.

After that, in header I checked "different first page." However, if I
deleted the header on page 1, the one after the cover page that I refer to
above, all headers on all pages were wiped out. If I put the header back on
page 2, the header also came back on page 1. So I noticed no difference
whether I had "different first page" checked or not. Am I inserting the wrong
type of break?

At this point, I'm thinking of trying this on my laptop which still has XP
and Word 02.

Thanks.

It's real easy and Word has tons of doc to show how not to have header on
first page of a doc. But I want the header to start on page THREE, with the
page number TWO. I think I have numbering OK but is the only option in
headers to be whether you have first page different from the rest?

BTW, demos seem to only run in IE, not Firefox.

I'm using Office 07 on vista home 64-bit.
Thanks in advance.
