Can I change the whole document so that footnotes appear after fullstop/period in the one one action/fix? I have about 350 footnotes although not all are wrong.

I must have accidently put footnotes in superscript before the period/full stop in the text of a very long manuscript or when I was doing some altering it happend. Maybe it was my eyes which are bad. It is the style i want

many thanks

In the Find and Replace dialog box (Ctrl+H), select the "Use wildcards"
option. Then enter the following:

"Find what": (^2)(.)

"Replace with": \2\1

Click Replace All.

Stefan you are brilliant. I really didn't think it could be done. I made 111 replacements so got some right! You have made my week.

Thanks a lot.

I'm glad it worked for you. :-)

Indeed, wildcard searches are very powerful! If you want to learn more, take

Wow I looked at it - scary but a "must know" for anyone writing complex or long douments. Handy for editing. I will certainly print it out. Well done to all the contributors. I wish someone would write and up to date code on how to change superscript in footnote into an ordinary size number with a full stop and space. A permanent fix for normal template. Also how to implement the code. The only one that exists is for a very old version of Word and not applicable.
Lots of lovely screenshots would be good
many thanks for your time

I see a new question hiding in your reply. :-)

If you are referring to the macro presented in the article at
http://word.mvps.org/faqs/macrosvba/...scptfnotes.htm, note that it can
still be used in Word 2007 and 2010, with a minor adjustment, as follows: In
addition to the InsertFootnote sub, you must add a second sub called
InsertFootnoteNow, containing the same lines of code. (This applies to the
endnotes macro as well.)
