Default Footer different on last page

I hope this is not too basic a question, but I'm stumped (never did get the
hang of headers/footers!). Using Office 2003, I need to put the page number
in the footer of all pages except the first page. That worked fine, as there
is a "different first page" option on page layout. Now I need to put
something else (document identifier) in the footer on the LAST page only,
along with the page number. I need it to always be on the last page, so no
matter how much content I add to the body of the document, the document
identified MUST be in the last page footer. Is this possible, and if so,
how? I tried starting a new continuous section at the very bottom of the
document body, but I couldn't seem to have the DocID show up on just the last
page. Hope this makes sense...

Woops...never mind. I searched this forum a little differently and found an
explanation by Suzanne Barhnill that worked just fine.
