To do what you ask is actually simple, and pretty elegant in WfW.
It requires that you insert a StyleRef field in the header (or 
footer) with the formatting you desire.

And it requires that you have a style defined for Chapter headings
and that you have the chapter headings consistently formatted with
that style.

For instance, in a book I'm writing, I have heading 1 as Chapter Heading, 
and heading 2 as Section.

So, I might have something like "Chapter One", "Laundry", the former
formatted as heading 1, the latter as heading 1.

In my header right aligned, I have:

{styleref heading 1} - {styleref heading 1}

And what prints is Chapter One - Laundry.

To enter a field either select Insert.Field, and pick the field from the
menu, or press Ctrl-F9 to enter field brackets and type the field name
and style name.

Note, this would also work if the name of the style were ChapeterHeading...

Hope this helps.
