Removing Footnote Spacing
After removing a footnote in Word 2000 the space remains on the page (along
with seperator line if I chose it). In the "normal" view when I click on "footnotes" I tried to "delete" the spacing to eliminate the space but received a dialog box stating it was "not a valid action for footnotes." How do I eliminate the space. The Reference mark in the document is deleted but when clicking on the empty line in "footnotes" the document jumps to where the reference mark originally was. Any solutions? -- G.A.Warren |

Removing Footnote Spacing
Select a character or two before and after the space in the document where
the footnote reference mark was and delete. With any luck, that will get rid of the last vestiges of the footnote. Then retype the deleted characters. Sometimes when you get the "not a valid action" message, you can work around it by some combination of Backspace and Delete, trying it from different locations. It's especially helpful to have nonprinting characters displayed so you can see what you're dealing with. -- Suzanne S.
