Default Variable top margin

I have a template where I have incorporated a graphics file as a letterhead
in the header section. I figured out to apply the header only to the first
page. The problem I have is the other pages after page one have too large a
top margin so the typing starts at 1.80" just like page one. Can the top
margin be varied from page to page? I tryed setting it with the "apply from
this point forward" setting for top margine but it doesn't seem to work.
What is the solution?

Thanks,
Charles

Default Variable top margin

Set the margin as you want it on the second and succeeding pages, then fudge
the top margin on the first page by adding space to the First Page Header;
