Can table footnotes appear beneath table?
"Beneath text" means immediately below all the text on the page rather than
at the bottom margin (if the text on the page runs short). To get a footnote immediately beneath the table (unless the table consumes a full page), you'll have to fake it. This is what I usually do, anyway. I use numbers for ordinary footnotes, and it is conventional to use either letters or alternative reference marks (the asterisk, dagger, double dagger series) in tables (letters especially if the tables are all numbers). Just insert these characters manually and type the notes manually at the bottom of the table. Especially if the table is narrower than the margin width, I usually put the notes in the (merged) bottom row of the table. -- Suzanne S.

When I insert the footnote, it seems to make no difference if I select Beneath Text or Bottom of Page--the footnote text always appears at the bottom of the page. Word 2003 Barb |
