Headers and footers

In MS word I can assign headers to begin with page 2 as "Page 2" and continue sequentialy with no header shown on sheet 1. Can this be done in MS Excel? I have been unable to get Excel to do this as well.

Any help will be most appreciated.

From page setup select header/footer tab.....check off the box that says "different first page".......... then click on custom header......
In the right section column type.........Page &[Page]

That should do it.

I have Excel 2003 and I do not have the option to check off a box that says "different first page" is this located somewhere else?
