Default Change footnote from before period to after - one action?

I'm glad it worked for you. :-)

Indeed, wildcard searches are very powerful! If you want to learn more, take
a look at http://www.gmayor.com/replace_using_wildcards.htm.

Stefan you are brilliant. I really didn't think it could be done. I made
111 replacements so got some right! You have made my week.

Thanks a lot.

wildcards"
option. Then enter the following:

"Find what": (^2)(.)

"Replace with": \2\1

Click Replace All.

Can I change the whole document so that footnotes appear after
fullstop/period in the one one action/fix? I have about 350 footnotes
although not all are wrong.

I must have accidently put footnotes in superscript before the
period/full stop in the text of a very long manuscript or when I was
doing some altering it happend. Maybe it was my eyes which are bad. It
is the style i want

many thanks
