Thank you to everyone who replied to my request.  Strange 
how you don't realize that you asked the wrong question 
until you get the answer.

The majority of you suggested that I just insert a new 
section for the second page in order to change the margins 
for the rest of the document.  That works fine.  But what I 
should have said was that with the requirements for the 
margins there is a page numbering requirement as well.

The page numbering requires that the first page have the 
number centered on the bottom of the page.  The subsequent 
pages must have the number in the top right corner.

In order to do that I went to page setup and set a 
different first page.  Then, under the Insert menu, I chose 
page numbers and set it for the Top of the Page (header) 
with a right alignment without showing the number on the 
first page. The next step was to View the headers and 
footers and in the center of the footer clicked the page 
number (#) button.  That set the numbering for the first 
chapter.
Then in order to keep the numbering scheme through out the 
document I would go to the end of the first chapter and 
insert a section break.  With that done the first page of 
the second chapter has the number in bottom center and the 
following pages have the number in the top right.

Now, I knew all of this when I asked my question about 
margins, but didn't provide that info.  For that I 
apologize.

When I try to set the second page's margin's as different 
from the first page, The numbering is then discarded for 
all but the first page.  This happens even if I try to set 
the margins before the numbering.  It seems as though I can 
do one or the other, but not both.  

Is there a work around for this in Word, or will they have 
to use a different program to combine separate documents at 
a later date?  The problem being that none of our graduate 
students are familiar with programs like Acrobat or 
Distiller.

Thanks for the help
