Default adding headers and footers to a word document

I have been working for most of several days to accomplish one thing, which
is still eluding me. I am working with Word 2003.

I have written a novel. I have broken it into two sections. The first
section contains the front matter with lower case Roman numerals. The second
section contains Arabic numerals. Both sections have 'different first page'
checked off on page layout and they look fine.

What I am now attempting to do is Put the title of the book on odd pages and
the author name on the even pages. I have tried everything I can possibly
think of, and chased down innumerable tutorials on the Internet for doing
this. As with the other sections, I am attempting to leave Title off the
first page.

I have been playing with adding sections, turning the 'same as previous' on
and off, 'different odd and even', etc. but still, no matter what I do, I end
up messing up what I have previously done.

I would GREATLY appreciate a step by step instruction on how to accomplish
the foregoing. By using that, I will be able to determine what I did or did
not do correctly. I am at wits end, and would appreciate whatever help you
can give me.
