Ctrl+Alt+F inserts the currently selected automatic format, yes. If you want
to create a custom sequence of symbols, you must revisit the Footnote and
Endnote dialog box for each new insertion. As far as I know, there is no
shortcut assigned to the dialog box by default.

It's already Ctrl-Alt-F. (That wasn't my invention long, long ago, was
it?)

To display the dialog box in Word 2007, click Office button | Word
Options |
Quick Access Toolbar | Customize.

Thanks Stefan. If this is the only way out, its going to tax me lot of
time as there is a lot to do. Anyways, I should get going.
