suppress endnote text but not number
I want to keep the endnote numbers visible in the text but NOT show or print
the text at the end of the document. I use Word 2007 but generally save in 2003 for my colleagues' sake. |

You could add the font attribute Hidden to the Endnote Text style.
(Endnote Reference style should do nothing but add Superscript to the existing text style, so you shouldn't need to un-mark it Hidden.)

Place the insertion point in an endnote paragraph. Right-click and choose
Style from the context menu. In the Style dialog box, verify that "Endnote Text" is selected in the list of styles. Click Modify. In the Modify Style dialog box, click Format, and then click Font. Select "Hidden" and click OK twice. Click Close to close the Style dialog box. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "cass" wrote in message ... Sounds good -- but how do I do that?

Open the Styles panel (Ctrl-Alt-Shift-S). At the lower right click
Options, and under Select styles to show, choose All Styles. OK that, and in the Styles panel, find Endnote style. Right-click and choose Modify. In the Format button at lower left, choose Font, and in the list of check-boxes check Hidden (the last one). OK all the way back to the Styles panel and change "All styles" back to "In use" or "In this document." Now you'll only see your endnotes when you Show Hidden Text (the easiest way is with Ctrl-Shift-8). On Aug 27, 11:03*am, cass wrote: Sounds good -- but how do I do that?

suppress endnote text but not number
I appreciate this help, but something's not working: I have hidden the
Endnote Text but it still shows on my screen (I have also unchecked the show hidden text in Word Options.) What I need to do is send a bunch of files to someone else so that he can see the endnote numbers in each, but since I have gathered the actual endnote text in a separate file I don't want to clutter everything by duplicating all those endnote pages in each of the other files along the way.

Show Non-Printing Characters will show hidden text regardless of the
Word Option setting. But because it's hidden, it's underlined with purple dots. (If you don't have the dotted underline, your text isn't marked Hidden.) If I were the recipient, I'd rather have the endnotes in their respective files than in a separate file! (Actually I prefer footnotes anyway.) There are publishers that still insist the authors submit all notes in a separate file. I wish they would grow up and enter the era of word processing!

I do appreciate your attention to this... but having just spent all afternoon
deleting 300 endnotes in 15 files, character by character since that was the only way they'd go away... well, *I* wish Microsoft would pay attention to how actual grown-up writers use their endnotes!

Uh-oh -- if you couldn't select an entire paragraph by triple-
clicking, something is seriously broken in your copy of Word.

I doubt it. As I explained, I wanted to delete the actual endnotes gathered
at the end of each file, but when I tried to select-and-delete in the note area, I always got an error message, something like This is not a permitted action in Endnotes. "Peter T.

That's the message you get when you try to delete the end-of-endnote
paragraph mark. To avoid the problem, with the endnote paragraph selected, press Shift- Left Arrow once (that deselects just the paragraph mark), and then you can delete the content of the note. (Note that if an endnote contains more than one paragraph, only the very last paragraph mark gives the problem -- the other one(s) being just ordinary paragraph breaks.)
