I’m working on a document and have put in a header and footer. It’s not a
page number, its some text and a logo. Now I need this to appear on every
page EXCEPT for the first page. I have tried everything and its driving me
mad because they always appear on my first page.

Please someone help.

A simple method is to use a conditional field eg
{IF {Page} > 1 "Put your logo and text here"}
It may be simpler to save the logo and text as an autotext entry and insert
that conditionally.
{IF {Page} > 1 "{Autotext "autotextname"}"}
The alternative method is to set a different first page header from page
setup and only insert the logo and text in the subsequent pages header.

On the Layout tab of Tools | Options, check the box for "Different first
page." This will give you a separate First Page Header/Footer that by
default will be empty.
