Default Re saving macros problem

Lisa,

I remember those posts (from you and kaye123) in a completely different
thread (with the subject "Losing italics in my footnotes").

We have to wait for kaye123 to give us more information...

Hi Stefan,

Since you have replied to an old thread, I see your post out of context


As I don't understand exactly Kaye's problem, here the discussion:

Active post from kaye123:

[Word 2013]
I am obviously having problems saving my macro on some documents as
stated below. I need to read up on my problem. What questions should I
ask please? I use a macro to change footnotes in word.



Original question from 26. Sept. 2013:

I changed my footnote spacing by using a macro
(a long time ago).
I don't know if my problems with this macro lately is why I have been
loosing all italics in my footnotes as I work with my document.
I use citation software and you can't change it manually. I don't know
what is happening and what I should be looking at to troubleshoot the
problem. I don't know if they are related to each other.
So as a first step is there a simple answer as to why footnotes are
changing without factoring in my macro? I don't really want to get into
a discussion about my macro at this stage.
Can anyone through any light on this please?
Using Word 2013.



My answer from 26. Sept. 2013:

ITALIC usually toggles: normal text will be formatted italic, italic
text will be formatted back to normal.
Maybe, your macro or something else resetted
italic to normal. Or anybody/anything reapplied the
style "Footnotetext", so italic was removed...
