Force list to stay in same place on repeat pages?

Is there some way to force a list (or table) to print in the same place
on repeat pages as it does on the first page?
Say for instance on the first page the list starts 2 inches from the
top, can I make it so on continuation pages the list always starts 2
inches from the top? Instead of starting from the top of the second
page?
What I really need is for the list to always print in a fixed
rectangle, say start 2 inches from the top, and stop 2 inches from the
bottom. Even on the continuation pages. Is this possible?
thanks-JimCan you just do this by adding page headers and footers to the report that
will regulate this? Or are there other complexities to your report that are
not mentioned?

header/body/trailer fill the whole page I got it close enough.
