WOW! That did it -- I had no idea you could put a vertical text box along the
left side within the header and it would still allow text to flow to the
right of the box. That absolutely solved my problem.

Thank you both so much for the help. Daiya, that link you sent me to
contained such wonderful information, I really appreciate all the trouble it
must've taken to put it all together. Amazing! You've made my day!

I believe one way of creating a letterhead like you describe is detailed

Scroll down to "Letterhead for a multi-page letter" and "More Complex
Letterhead", especially the second one.

I think, though the page will explain, that the general principle is if you
anchor the text box in the first-page header, then you don't need to change
the margins at all, as it will push the text out of the way.
