Default Page border for "section"

I have word 2003.
I am creating a newsletter and some of the pages need borders. I did not
have any problems with it before.
But now, I can't get it to work for my current newsletter.
I inserted "continuous section breaks" before and after the pages and used
"this section only" and also "first page-this section only" tabs on the pages
border dialog box and I cannot get the border to appear.
I have one section spanning across 2 pages and the page border appears only
on the second page of this section.
Any suggestions?

Default Page border for "section"

Border settings applies to whole pages of a section. In other words, for a
continuous section, the border settings will be ignored for the page it
shares with the preceding section. Changing the "Section start" from
"Continuous" to "New page" (File | Page Setup, Layout tab) should fix this.
