Using StyleRef for Headers

[trj27]

I am trying to use StyleRef to automatically insert chapter subheadings in
the Header. On every even page, the header is the Chapter name and title. On
every odd page, a StyleRef field prints the name of the subsection within the
chapter. This works fine except in one instance where a brief introductory
section precedes the first subheading. In this case, the StyleRef field picks
up the heading from the previous chapter since I haven't used that heading
again in the document yet. Is there a fix for this?

Any suggestions?

Insert an empty paragraph mark and apply the subheading style to it.
If necessary, format the paragraph mark with a font size of 1 pt to
make it almost undetectable.
