Hi,

I was wondering...
Is it possible to customize footnotes at the bottom of the page? And
especially the reference?
For example: the numbers are now shown like "1" (and so on), while I
want it to be "1)".
And the default separator to be a [Tab] instead of a [Space]
character.
Also the default line above the footnotes, is it possible to delete it,
and by default to get e.g. a margin of 3 lines to the rest of the text?
And finaly is it possible to seperate the style of the refence used at
the end of the page (say "1)" without superscript) from the one in the
document itself (say "1"with superscript)?
Hope someone can help me with this one.

Bert

You can either add this manually, or make use of the macros at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/UnSuperscptFnotes.htm. In the code, make
sure to modify the following line:

   .InsertAfter "." & vbTab

to have ")" instead of "."

Note also that if you are using Word 2007, you may want to add an identical
macro named "InsertFootnoteNow" too. (This command is invoked as you press
the Insert Footnote button on the References ribbon.)

To edit the footnote separator, do this: View | Normal. View | Footnotes.
(In Word 2007: View tab | Draft. References tab | Show Notes.) In the
footnote pane, click the Footnote Separator item. Delete the line. Then
format the empty paragraph to have the desired amount of Spacing Above (in
the Paragraph dialog box).
