Default Sections in Header

Investigate the StyleRef field. It is simply a case of inserting the
StyleRef referencing Heading Level 3 into the header and then each page will
pick up the nearest H3 on that page or preceding the page if there isn't one
on that page.

Hi There,
I am trying to get Word (2003) to automatically put the current heading
(section) into the header of whichever page it is that i am working. Sorry
of
i'm not explaining this very well....

I an using the style guide and am using numbered headings e.g
6 Results
6.1 England
6.1.1 Manchester ..etc..etc

What i would like is for word to automatically workout which level 3
heading
is on any partitular page and put that heading in the top left of the page
(header). If there is no heading on any partitulat page i would like it to
find the last heading and use that (Because i am obviously still writing
under that heading). I do not what to put a section break after every
heading as some sections are very short and do not require additional
pages.
I hope this makes sence.

In essence, i want word to look for the Heading from the style guide
rather
than the 'Section' from a section break.

Can this be done?

Hope i have not confused you too much.

Many thanks in advance.
Andy
