In Word 2003 is there any way to set up a page border so that it

creating a seperate section for just that page?

It depends on which page you want bordered. You can border the first page of
a section (or of the document, if there is only one section in it).

In the Format Borders and Shading Page Border dialog, pull down the
"Apply to" box and select "This section - First page only". Then select your
border.

For any other page, you could fake it by making a graphic file that looks
like a page border and inserting it with Behind Text wrapping. Another trick
that might work with such a graphic is to put an IF field in the header:

{IF {PAGE} = 5 "paste the graphic here"}

would make the graphic appear only on page 5. The article at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/tblsfldsfm...nPgEndChap.htm explains how this
kind of field works.
