Default How do I stop footnotes from breaking across pages?

To the extent that you can control this, the methods are detailed he

Footnote on Wrong Page

Some improvement should be possible, certainly, especially from your
description.

I have a 65 page thesis that I will soon send to my advisors in Word 2002. I
am unhappy with the way Word arranges footnotes. It will split even small
footnotes accross several pages; I had a 3 line footnote with one line on
each of 3 consecutive pages.

Can I control how Word arranges footnotes at the bottom of a page?
Can I force it to keep certain footnotes together instead of splitting them
across several pages?

Thanks for your help.
