Default Over-riding Section Page Numbers with Document Page Numbers in a T

Using Office/Word 2003

I'm not sure how to handle a situation - my client wants a TOC for a large
document, BUT - he also wants individual sections for different chapters with
their own page numbers in them. I know how to change the page numbers for the
different sections, but then he wants the TOC to reflect actual, physical
page numbers in the entire document. For example, Chapter 2 has its own
section that says Chapter 2, Page 1/Chapter 2 Page 2, etc., in the Header,
while Chapter 3 says Chapter 3, Page 1 in its header, etc. But, Chapter 2
actually begins on "real" page 10 of the document. He wants that Page 10 to
show in the TOC at the beginning of the document. Is there any way to do that
without having to "manually" type in page numbers in the Chapter Sections
headers (losing the automatice feature) and use a "regular" automatic page
number in a footer? Can I have the footer page number not show if I need to
do that? Other than covering it up with a white box (G)? I hope that makes
sense!!
