And make sure that your footer margin is smaller than your bottom margin.

I do that all the time w/out difficulty. The footer is at the very bottom
of the page, the footnotes are at the bottom of the page above the footer.
What problem are you having?

What version of Word? Click ¶ on the standard toolbar so that you can see
if there are stray empty paragraphs (¶s).

Did you create your footers using View | Header/Footer, or just type at
the
bottom of the page?

Whenever I have apage that has both footnotes and footers, the footnotes
displace the footers. I have the footnotes set at bottom of page, but
if I
set them for below text, it puts them half way up the page if that is
where
the text ends. So basically I want my footnotes at the bottom of the
page
along with my footers (which have the report name and page numbers).
