When I insert a footnote, Word adds two paragraph returns above the footnote
text. I see a short horizontal rule, two returns, and then my text. I am unable to select the unwanted returns - and the horizontal rule for that matter. I am using Word 7. I'll appreciate any help on this! |

Switch to Draft view. On the References tab, click Show Notes. In the Footnotes
pane, choose to display the Footnote Separator. Delete the excessive paragraph marks. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Beth Obenshain" wrote in message ...

Hi Stefan,
When I view the footnote in draft mode, there are no extra returns. What else can I try? "Stefan Blom" wrote: Switch to Draft view. On the References tab, click Show Notes.

Do you have nonprinting marks displayed (you can use Ctrl+Shift+8 as a toggle)?
Excessive paragraph marks will be shown as pilcrows (¶). -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "Beth Obenshain" wrote in message ...

Was it a matter of hiding/showing paragraph marks (see my other reply)?
Anyway, I'm glad you got it sorted. :-) -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP (Message posted via NNTP) "Beth Obenshain" wrote in message ... Hi Stefan, I figured it out! Thanks.
