Default Word into Word or Header pg1 or Protect Doc Problem

I find it really unusal that you cannot insert a Word file into a Word file
the way you can with Adobe Acrobat Pro. That is such a useful feature. If I
could, I could insert our letterhead, as a separate file, into any document
as page one and not have to deal with subsequent page/different first page
formatting issues - which don't work in this case:

I can clear the the letterhead header information on subsequent pages to the
first, but I can't clear the space it uses and our letterhead header is 3.5"
- so to have a 3.5" blank spot on pages 2 - x is ridiculous. It would be so
easy to insert our letterhead page as a separate file, as page 1 of a
document - BUT Word doesn't allow you to insert a Word doc into a Word doc.
This is so easy to do with Adobe. I am very dissapointed with this severe
limitation of Word.

So, then, I created a page, with our complex letterhead information (3
columns) at the top of the page (not as a header) and then put in a section
break to eliminate the column format and set it up to lock that information
from being changed through the "Protect Document" feature.

But, then, I cannot keep the highlighting from showing up throughout the
rest of the document where "Allow changes" is set. In other words, from that
point forward I don't want each person that uses this document to have to
keep turing off the highlighted section(s) of "Allow changes from this point
forward." I just want them to create their own document with a locked
letterhead logo section at the top. You should be able to save the document
and reopen it without the "Highlighted OK to create/use/change section" going
forward.

If anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Greg
