change footers within a section without changing all of them

[Nerd Alert]

I have created a large document in Word with several section breaks, with
each page having a footer. When I make a revision to any page I have to
document the date on each page with the revision, which I do through footers.
I have run into a problem in each section though. If I make a change on one
page in the section it changes it on all the pages in the section. I am
using Microsoft Word 2003 and have been unable to find a solution to this
problem.

You might put it in a text box anchored to the middle of your page or to the
paragraph you changed. The textbox, itself, would be in the footer location
but not a part of the footer.
