Default Macro workaround footnotes/endnotes - paid service

(1) Whether the footnote reference is superscript or normal is
controlled by the Character Style called "Footnote Reference." Thus
you can put your cursor in any footnote, press Ctrl-A to select them
all, then use Find-Replace to find all examples of the Footnote
Reference style (More Format Styles) and Replace them with the
Footnote Text style. (I don't know how to add a period after an on-
line footnote number.)

(2) To convert footnotes to endnotes, go to the References tab of the
Ribbon, open the Footnotes panel (tiny arrow at the lower right of the
Footnotes group), and click the Convert button.

Using Word 2010. I am trying to change my footnotes that are currently
in superscript in text and also in footnotes. I need a permanent
workaround in a macro to retain superscript in text and in a number,
full stop and a space in footnote or endnote as set down in this article
by Dave Rado, which is the only one I have seen.http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/MacrosVBA/...scptFnotes.htm

I have addressed this before and I have had no response but now I have
this article to give you to look at. I am also PREPARED TO PAY FOR A NEW
MACRO TO BE WRITTEN FOR ME. *(see below)

HOWEVER I NOW need to change my footnotes to endnotes to appear at the
end of each chapter, as my typesetter can’t work with footnotes. So I
also need to know if existing work has to be changed manually. If so, I
have directions on how to do this, but I have over 300 to change so
far.

I see in this forum that Dave Rado has disappeared. I don’t know how old
the article is but presume it is before 2007 and I cannot understand it.
It is beyond my skill level. I can’t find any other workaround and I
have searched you tube and exhausted the tutorials. *I saw on this forum
that another macro given by Dave had an error in it, so I need this
workaround to be tested.

I am looking for an explanation that will show me what steps to take in
screenshots. Although I have looked at macros I really am lost with this
one. If it can’t be found I am prepared to PAY FOR A SERVICE to write
one for me for a *as long as it is an explanation for dummy’s - set out
set by step in a screenshot using Word 2010. I also need to know how to
use it and for someone to work with me to ensure I have done it
correctly and offer further support if I can't do it

I hope now someone can help as this problem is 3 months old and I
desperately want to move forward. I haven’t set up a private email so I
will need a contact. If the service is offered first on the forum I will
know it is genuine. I hope someone can help. If you see it and you know
anyone from the forum who can help can you please forward my post to
them.

Thank you for your support if forthcoming, I know you are volunteers and
appreciate your time
