In word2003 there is a

PageSetup.DifferentFirstPageHeaderFooter
[download]

property. The vba help file only shows how to test if this propery is true.

An article here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q269565/
talks about: "The second section contains three pages. In this section, the first page header and footer are different from the other two pages."

Hope this helps.
