Default Dynamically changing headers?

I have a long document in outline form and broken up into sections. In
addition to the page number in the header I'd also like to include the
section number that is on that page to make for easy document navigation.
As the document is edited and sections added, I'd like for that "section
number" in the header to be able to change according to whatever section is
actually on that page.

I'm trying not to have to manually type the appropriate section for each
page onto the header of each page.

Make sense? And if so is it possible?

Thanks,
Tom

See answer to duplicate post in numbering group. In the Microsoft Word
newsgroups it is considered bad form to post separate messages to multiple
newsgroups. If you need to post in more than one forum (unusual) please post
a single message with both forums in the header of that single message. That
way (1) your question and the various answers stay together, (2) less space
is used on the news servers, (3) less bandwidth is used on the Internet, (4)
you only have to check one forum for answers that appear in both forums, and
(5) you won't unnecessarily annoy the people you are asking for help. This
isn't meant to criticize you. We were all beginners once and the only way to
learn is to try. (BTW, a number of the Microsoft newsgroups don't want
posting in more than one newsgroup, period. Check the FAQ.)
Take a look on the MVP FAQ website under "getting help" for more reasons ase
well as other suggestions for getting answers more easily and quickly. URL:
