In that case, you're in for some hand work, since the Footnote Reference
style governs all references. By default, it is defined as Default Paragraph
Font + Superscript, which means that it just superscripts whatever font and
font size are being used at the insertion point, which are usually defined
by the style in the given paragraph (in the footnotes, this is the Footnote
Text style).

Addendum he it did work (with 'footnote reference', not 'footnote
text').
It took time for the file shows up the change I made. I don't know I had
to
close the file and open again, but somehow later it did show up the
change.

However, my question should be more specific: I just want change the
FootNote Reference stuff WITHIN the main document, not on the bottom in
the
foot note area.

Thanks again.

Thanks for macro.

Regarding Changing fonts for foot note reference: Are you sure you are
not
mistaken by saying 'foot note text'?

I have foot note reference (the one showing within the document text) in
Arial, 11 points, superscript, red and blue. So I picked 'footnote
reference' and right click. Click on modify to change to other color
(green)'
and checked 'only this document' and then o.k.

Then - nothing changes. What should I do next?

Thanks for your help.

To change the font of all footnote reference numbers, follow exactly
the same
directions as in my post below, except work on the style named Footnote
Reference instead of Footnote Text.

Deleting all the footnotes in a document in one step takes a macro. See
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm for instructions on how to
insert
this macro into your template:

Sub RemoveAllFootnotes()
Dim fn As Footnote
For Each fn In ActiveDocument.Footnotes
fn.Delete
Next
End Sub

It's not clear how I can change font for ALL the footnote reference
number in
one swoop. Please. Also if you can, tell me how I get rid of all the
footnotes from the document in ones swoop. Thanks.

Firstly, Word 2007's controls are so different from those of earlier
versions
that you _must_ mention you're using 2007 in any question you post.

Second, "Footer" is _not_ the same as "Footnote". The styles you
changed have
nothing to do with footnotes, which is why you didn't see any
effect.

On the Home ribbon, in the Styles group, there is a small square
button in the
bottom right corner below the Change Styles button. Click that
button, or press
its shortcut combination Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S, to open the Styles task
pane.

If you don't see "Footnote Text" in the list of styles, click the
Options link
in the bottom right corner of the pane, and in the options dialog
change the
"Select styles to show" dropdown from "Recommended" to "All styles".
You may
also want to change the sort order from "As recommended" to
"Alphabetical".

Now right-click the name of the Footnote Text style (not Footer!)
and choose
Modify.

In Word 2007 I only see Styles, not Styles & Formatting, and there

to change

Please help!

Down at the bottom of Styles & Formatting, click "More" and
you'll
find Custom, Show All Styles, Styles in Use, etc. When you look
in
each of those, you'll find lists with checkboxes, and Footnote

I have to resize each footnote manually.
