Default Table of Footnotes giving "Error! No table of figures entries found" error?

Hi

I have a large document with a hundred or so footnotes in, set to
appear at the bottom of each page. I also want these footnotes to
appear in a table near the end of the document.

So, I did Insert Reference Index & Tables, Table of Figures Tab,
Options, select Style "Footnote Text", but get the error "Error! No
table of figures entries found".

I have reproduced this in a small document with footnotes both on the
page before and the page of the Table of Figures and still get the
error. I have tried doing it using the "Table of Contents" Tab,
selecting "Footnote Text" as the style to use and still no luck.

The Field Codes are "TOC \f \h \z \t "Footnote Text" \c". I can
change "Footnote Text" to "Heading 1" and it shows all heading 1
entries.

All comments, ideas and especially solutions welcomed

Thanks
Kev

There is no built-in way to do what you want, because Word cannot
"see" text in footnotes for the purpose of TOC/TOF creation. (The
situation is similar with text in headers, footers, and text boxes.)
Of course, you can ask for help with a macro solution in
microsoft.public.word.vba.general.
