When I generate a simple report as a Word DOC the headers don't show up on any page.I have included some plain text under the header of the master page and under the the master page properties, there is property named "header/footer". I have unchecked the property "show header on first" so that headers get printed on all pages except first one. This works fine if I view the report as a pdf but not when as word doc.

If I check this check box "show header on first" then its working fine for pdf as well as word doc.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Resign a report and add dynamic text to header and footer with a text value.
2.under the header of the master page and under the the master page properties, there is property named "header/footer",unchecked the property "show header on first".
3.Goto view Report -> View Report as Doc

Doc 2003/2007 doesn't support hide page header/footer on the first page, so the page header/footer will be display on all pages or hide on pages.
