Default how can i add"footnotes" in the margin of a word doc?

i have seen many documents written with comments added in the margins (either
side). i have been trying to do the same. i have tried writing the main
part of the document in the centre of a 3-columned table, but this ends up
messing around with the margins when adding additional normal tables. are
there any solutions that are easy?

Not footnotes created by Insert | Reference | Footnote, but you can add
marginal notes; see http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/MarginalText.htm
