Thanks to you both for your responses. Here is the problem that I do
not seem to be able to solve readily without reconstructing my header:
I already have created the header and footer and would now like to
change the second and all additional pages.
I am used to using WordPerfect, where I can go in and see where the
commands are and correct them easily, if they are not in the correct
spot. Intuitively I can see in Word that the Page Setup should place a
command in front of the header and footer commands, but there is no way
that I can literally see where that command is placed.
Is there a way of placing the "First Page Only" formatting command into
a page that is already created or will I have to copy the header and
footer to a new page? If the latter, how would I copy a complete header
and footer onto another document?
Thanks

I can't see the replies you already got--did you change the subject line? So
if this is a repeat, sorry.
Turn on First Page Headers (File | Page Setup, Layout tab). View
Headers/Footers. If the First Page header is now blank, copy the regular
header into it. If necessary, delete the text in the regular header.
You copy between documents exactly the same way as within a doc--just view
headers/footers and copy into the appropriate location--but you don't need
to in this case.

What you say about "Intuitively...." in fact, I think that is exactly *not*
how Word works. It works very differently from WordPerfect, and I think a
lot of your confusion is caused by thinking it's the same. See these:

headers/footer work:

Thanks for the references. I will read them later today. I
particularly like the title "Is there life after "Reveal Codes"? !!!

What I am finding frustrating is not being able to copy the settings for
the header, only the text. Is there a way to copy the header
completely, including text, images, and formatting?
Thanks
Ken K

Try control-A while in the header, as long as your graphic is in-line and
not set behind the text. But the graphic may be in the drawing layer--in
which case try double-clicking it and copying it separately. This will make
more sense after you've had a chance to read at least the first article I
recommended.
How did you insert the graphic?
