Default Footer problem

I probably should have said that the way I'm working at the moment, the
seperate units aren't combined into a single document at any stage unit they
are pdf'd at the end.

I am using word to create a whole lot of 'units' of work, each of which is
kind of like a chapter. Then a combination of these units can be combined
into one book.

The problem is that I want the footer to include the name of the unit BUT I
also want to have consecutive page numbers throughout the book (including a
working contents page on the front of each unit).

So each footer must have info specific to that unit, AND generalised to the
whole book.

I would like this process (if it is even possible) to be as automated as
possible. I don't want to have to go into every unit and change the footers.

Any ideas would be very welcome.

Also, when the units are combined into a book the book is PDF'd, if this
helps.

Thanks
