Default Header/Footer with Section Breaks

You can either disable "Different first page" for sections after the first,
or you can unlink the First Page Header/Footer in subsequent sections and
duplicate the Header/Footer in it.

...
I have a Word document (built by someone else). It is one page with Page
Setup showing a different first page. When people use the document, the
second page of the document shows a different header, ie first page holds
info on Title, File No, Department, etc and second page holds Title and

Dept
only (no File No). The second page should be different, and automatically
appears correctly. As long as I insert a page break all is well.

I get into trouble when I put a section break in. It inserts a new section
and automatically puts on the different first page.

What I would like to see is the first page is different for the entire
document and all subsequent pages, regardless if there is a section break

or
page break, will hold the second page information.

I've read the Section break information but can't find an answer for this.

I
am unable to apply the Different first page to the Entire Document or This
Point Forward - it will only let me apply it to the Section.

Any ideas?
