Default putting title of Section/Chapter/subsection on header?

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to include the current section/
chapter/subsection on header.

I've been creating my hierarchy by using Heading 1, Heading 2 and
Heading 3 styles, so the TOC I created at the front of the document
works fine.

I would just like the header on page 15 to include the current chapter
or subsection the page belongs to.

I suspect I need to Edit Header and choose a field to insert there,
but I can't figure out what field to insert.

The only thing that seems relevant is the TOC field, but I have no
idea what that is going to do.

Anybody know the answer?

Thanks.
