Default Section breaks and headers

I have inserted a section break (new page) and now want to put a header for
the pages that follow the section break. I open the page header and start to
type. Everything is fine for two lines of text. When I hit return, or shift
return, to start the 3rd line of text it automatically makes it the header
for section 1. In page set up I have selected from this point on, but it
still wants to jump back to the previous section whenever I go the to the
third line of text. I am baffled.

I am using Word 2003 in Windows XP environment.

I just figured it out. You have to turn off the "link to previous" option on
the header tool bar.
