Word section break

Maybe not a VBA question, just a Word thing. A document has a different first page header then another header for all other pages. I made a macro that adds a section to the end and then formats that section--completely different headers margins, etc in the 2nd section. Problem is, if the user decides they don't want the 2nd section after all and delete the section page break, the headers from the 2nd section get applied to the first section (or as MS knowledge base explains, the text from the first section is applied to the second section format because the section page break contains the formating info for the preceeding section).

So, how do I create the doc so that the user can delete the second section, but the first section keeps it's own headers?

I know that it is possible because I have a document where I can delete the 2nd section and the 1st section headers stay the same. I'm trying to analyize how that document was created, but haven't been able to replicate it yet.

Any ideas on how to make this work? :confused:
