Default Setting margins for a follow-on page (after a headed page)

Dear all,

I need to set the margins for the follow-on pages in a document that has
headed (margins 4cm & 1.9cm l/r) on the first page. On subsequent pages I
need 2cm/2cm l/r (as well as different top/bottom margins).

If I click at the start of the second page and change them in page setup
(and in the botom box select 'from this point onwards') it works, but if I
then add text to the first page I end up with a couple of lines on page 2,
and page 3 is the same format as the headed page! If I delete anything I end
up losing the headed margins and the whole document goes to the page 2
margins.

This was SO easy in WordPerfect - you could specify formats on a per page
basis. I've rummaged and rummaged in the menus of Word and I can't see how I
might do this. There doesn't seem to be anything on the FAQ sections of the
website either. I can see how to choose different papers in the printer, but
can't find any associated layout properties per page.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
(Word 2002 SP3 on WXPPro SP2)

Thanks
