If you don't use WriteNow, you aren't interested in this note.

I like being able to define multiple headers and footers in WriteNow, but I
couldn't figure out how to make a header not appear on the first page
of a document, but on all subsequent pages.  Of course, I could just
define the header on the second page, but that's icky--you would have to
be careful when editting the file so the marker wouldn't slide off the
second page to the first or third, defeating the purpose.  Plus, this
would make it impossible to use a Stationery document to make it happen
automatically.

Anyway, I had a flash of inspiration.  For any given page, WriteNow uses
the LAST header definition it found on a PREVIOUS page, or the FIRST
definition it finds ON the page.  So, all I had to do was put TWO
headers at the top of my Stationery document.  The first is blank, and
results in a blank header on page 1.  The second is the header that is
printed on subsequent pages.

This works like a charm.  I hope somebody else finds this useful (or am
I just stupid, and you've all been doing this all the time?).
