[Tugindia] Heading

Dear LaTex Users,

In an article, a heading other than the title of the article is to be included
above the title, from the left margin. The article has been prepared using
the documentclass: article; one-sided.

Using the \markright command along with the \pagestyle{myheadings}, I
am able to create the heading in all pages except the first page. I need
the heading to appear on the first page also.

Leslie Lamport's book says that: "The right head information is always
null for the first page of a document. If this is a problem, generate a
blank first page with the titlepage environment."

Accordingly, I created a blank title page also. Still, the first page of the
article that contains the title and some text does not contain the
required heading. The rest of the pages do carry this heading.

Will you please help me to sort out this problem?

1) How can I get the heading appear on the first page of the article also?
2) Is it possible to restrict the heading only on the first page and not
   on the subsequent pages?

Sincerely,

G. Abhilash
