Mishri, just to be extra clear, you need to do both of the things suggested by ldolse and TheDucks.

1. Go back to your original WORD document, open it, and save or export "as" either html(filtered) or rtf.

2. Open calibre, and use the "Add Books" button, or just drag and drop to get that new html or rtf file into calibre.
It should now appear at the top of the list of books in your calibre library.

3. Right Click on that, point to [Edit Metadata], and select [Edit Metadata Individually]

4. In the window that pops up, fix up the title, author, cover, comments, etc., as you want them to be. (If you need help on this part, let us know.)

5. Hit "OK"

6. Now, right-click on the book, point to [Convert Books] and select [Convert Individually]

7. In the new window that pops up, make sure the output format on upper right says "Mobi", then hit "OK".

That should do it for you. The default conversion settings should be fine, but if you want to tweak things, like chapters, you can try converting again, but editing some conversion options this time. Let us know if you need help with those.

Good luck!
