Why is my text body doing a page break every time I insert a foot.
I am using Word 2003. Every time I insert a footnote, there is a page break
in the text. The footnote properly appears at the bottom of the page, but there is a page break in the body of the text in the line before the footnote, sometimes leaving a page with 2 or 3 lines of text and a footnote of 2 or 3 lines. |

Is there a change in the number of columns (requiring a section break)? If
so, see "Section break causes an unexpected page break in Word" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=292074 Otherwise, see "WD2000: Footnote Moved to the Next Page" at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=212071 -- Suzanne S.

There were no section breaks and no change in the number of columns. My
footnote did not move to the next page. However, I think that I have found the problem - When I viewed normal, revealed formatting, and looked at the footnote separator, there were several paragraph markings connected to the footnote separator. I reset it and deleted the paragraph markings and the problem seems to have gone away. Thanks for the suggestions. "Suzanne S.
