It sounds to me as if you are trying to create two pages on a single sheet.
Have you tried using the "2 pages per sheet" option in "Multiple pages" on
the Margins tab of Page Setup? This allows to apply page borders to the two
separate "pages" just as you would to full-sheet pages.
If that's not what you want to do, then you may have to create a "fake" page
border using a bordered text box, frame, or AutoShape with Behind Text
wrapping.
