I am going to give that a test run again, but it did not work the first time.
Right now, it worked when I was in section/normal view and simply clicked
"this page forward" after the page 2 section break.

Selecting "This page forward" inserts a section break, which introduces
needless complexity.

I must have a different kind of version of Word, because it wasn't complex
once I figured out what it wanted me to do. It worked. However, I did go back
and try the "different first page" thingy in normal view mode and that
(finally) worked also.
I still think the Microsoft people should make it easier, as does
WordPerfect. You simply tell that program 'no header on page one' and it does
just that. Period--don't have to change views (which I prefer to view in
print format-real time-instead of normal), or anything. You simply tell it
what to do and it does it, which is why legal pro's prefer WP.
WPerfect is easier to work with when doing long and complex documents that
have to go to judges and courthouses, mainly because WP was designed to be
heavily used by lawyers. Word is strictly for simple letters and tables, it
doesn't handle legal work or stacked multi-level documents very well at all.

By "needless complexity" I didn't mean that it would be difficult for you to
do. I meant that it makes the document needlessly complex. Every time you
insert a section break, you give Word (and yourself) more to keep up with.
Moreover, if you have anything on that page that needs to flow to the next
page, or if that page grows, then you'll find that your section has become
two pages and that the text doesn't just flow to your original page 2.
