My project is two pages. I created the header and footer on page 1, used a
different header and footer on page 2. Placed a bookmark in the text area
followed by a section break.

When placing text in the document, I want it to run into the second page.
When it does, it creates another page with the first header and first footer
and makes my second page the third page.

How do I get the texst to run into the second page and use the second header
and footer?

Delete the section break. On the Layout tab of Page Setup, check the box for
"Different first page." Then put your first page header in the First Page
Header and the second page header in the Header. See
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm for more details.
