Footnotes converted to Endnotes
User has Word 2002 SP3. A co-worker worked on her document and seems to have
changed the 17 Footnotes in it into Endnotes and deleted the note pane. We have tried the method listed in Help to convert them back to footnotes but nothing happens. Is this a feature which only converts once? -- Brenda |

Footnotes converted to Endnotes
I am not sure why the Convert button on the Footnote dialog does not work.
This has always worked for me, regardless of how long the document has not been active. Have you tried, Right Mouse click on the Endnote, Convert to Footnote? Hope this helps DeanH "Brenda from Michigan" wrote: User has Word 2002 SP3.

Footnotes converted to Endnotes
The end notes do not appear to be inside a pane. Right click on the end
notes gets a regular menu with Paragraph, Font, etc. Convert is not an option. The only way to get to a convert box is to click at the first reference and go to Insert | Reference | Footnotes | Convert | Convert Endnotes to Footnotes. More references are created but all the notes remain at the end of the document. -- Brenda "DeanH" wrote: I am not sure why the Convert button on the Footnote dialog does not work.

Footnotes converted to Endnotes
Sounds like the Endnotes are no longer Endnotes and have been converted to
bodytext. If this is the case then there is nothing to convert. Unfortunately this could mean a manual recreation of the Foot/End notes. Sorry.
