I am using Word 2003 on WIndows XP SP2.

I need: No header or footer on the cover page, but the same header and
footer on all other pages in the document, including the first page of the
next section, which is the main body of the document. The pagination needs
to start over at section 2, the main body of the document.

The problem:
When I insert a "Section Break Odd" to start the main body of the document,
Word omits the header and footer, because Word thinks I want the first page
of this new section to behave like the first page of the front matter section
(which I have set up as "Different first page" in Page Setup). When I add
the header and footer onto the first page of the main body, Word goes back
and adds the header and footer to the first page of the front matter. I need
the first page of the main body of the document (section 2) to behave
differently than the first page of the front matter (section 1). The first
page of the front matter is the cover page; it should not have a header and
footer. The first page of the main body of the document needs to have a
header and footer.

I appreciate any help.
