Default How not show header in 2nd page of doc??

From the header design tab and the cursor in the second section, uncheck the
link to previous check box. then ensure that you have the headers you want
in the second section but not the first.

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.
