Footnote Separator Formatting
Dear all,
I have problems with the footnote separator in my word document. Above the footnote, there is a space of five lines (although it should be only one). Word Help indicates, that this can be formatted via "View-Footnotes". This does not seem to work. However, the lines above the footnote seem to be active in the footer when choosing "View - Header and Footer", but I don't manage to activate and delete them. I would appreciate if anybody could help me in this regard. Thank you very much in advance, Julia |

Footnote Separator Formatting
To access the footnote separator in Word 2003, do this: Click View | Normal.
Then click View | Footnotes. In the Footnote pane, choose the Footnote Separator item. You can now delete any undesired contents in the footnote separator. You may want to press Ctrl+Shift+8 to display nonprinting marks; that way, you can easily delete excessive paragraph marks (¶) found in the separator. When you are done, press Ctrl+Shift+8 to hide the nonprinting marks. Does that help? -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Julia" wrote in message ... Word 2003. |

Footnote Separator Formatting
You are welcome.
And you're right: the footnote pane requires Normal view (called Draft view in Word 2007) or Outline view (it might work in Web Layout view, too, but I haven't tested that). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Julia" wrote in message ...
