Default Headers & Footers

I'm setting H&F in a long document. I have no problem with the odd/even
numbering. However, I want the chapter name to change in the header on each
chapter. I've read all the helps and cannot find my error. I think it's in
the section breaks but can't figure out where I'm going wrong. It seems to
work for a few chapters then it either reverts to the previous one or when I
set the last chapter -- the headers all change to that chapter name. I've
been workng on this all week with no luck.

Would so much appreciate any help!!

Thank you for your response Pam, I checked the link and not being familiar
with styleref field - I did as it suggested and checked help for styleref
field. Word 7 says it can't find any such thing.

For more information about the STYLEREF field, click the Index tab in
Microsoft Word 7.0 Help, type the following text
STYLEREF

When you can't find something in Help in Word 2007, the best resource is
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/wo...649261033.aspx, which provides
access to the generally helpful Word 2003 Help file. But also see

One would think that help topics still relevant for Word 2007 (after some
minor changes) could easily be added to Word 2007 help, but apparently that
is a difficult task. sigh

Often Word 2007 Help does point to one of these online topics, but there are
no links to "advanced" topics, including most fields.
