Default Header first page only - How? Word 2007

Thanks Jay, I am coming from the Word Perfect World and I have no idea how
to insert a *temporary break page*. Word 2007 seems nice, but it
overly-complicates simple tasks.

It isn't an "option", you have to physically move the material from
one header to the other.

If you only have one page in the document, insert a temporary page
break at the bottom of the page so you can see the header on page 2.

Select the text (and anything else) from the page 2 header, cut it to
the clipboard, go to the first page header, and paste.

Hi Jay - How do I get the header I already created to be recognized as the
First Page Header? I don't see this option.

On the Page Layout tab of the ribbon, click the Page Setup dialog
launcher (the tiny button in the lower right corner of the Page Setup
group). In the dialog, click the Layout tab and check the option for
Different First Page. Click OK.

This gives you two different headers, one for the first page and
another for all other pages.

Go to the Insert tab of the ribbon, click the Header button, and
either choose one of the headers in the gallery or choose Edit Header
from the bottom of the gallery. The text and/or cursor will appear in
the header area, which is tagged with "First Page Header". Anything
you put there will appear only on page 1.

See http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/Letterhead.htm for some advice
about letterhead construction.

Hi - I have Word 2007 which is part of the Office 2007 Professional
Suite
that is being run on XP Pro SP2. I only want the header to appear on
the
*first* page of a multi-page *letter* document.

Question: How do I accomplish this?

Thanks

Joe
