I have a question about the compiling of a single document from multiple
documents. I've created eight documents, representing eight individuals
chapters of a manual. Some of the chapters have been revised and so noted by
a footnote. When I compile all of the chapters by using the "Insert" key
after each chapter, the "Revised" footnote does not appear. However, when I
use "Copy & Paste" after each chapter the footnote does appear. Why the
difference?

What version of Word?

This is a footnote created by using Insert | Footnote in Word?

Okay, you're not talking about a footnote at all but a footer (View |
Header/Footer). If you really want a footnote, you need to use Insert |
Reference | Footnote. If you really want this note in a footer, then you
need to have a separate section for the pages where the given footer
appears, and you need to unlink it from the preceding and following
sections; see http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/HeaderFooter.htm

Well, there you go then. That's not a footnote, that's a footer. Check what
you did again, you'll see.

And this page will answer your question about why the difference:
http://www.mvps.org/word/FAQs/Format...thSections.htm

And this page will explain about footers:
http://home.earthlink.net/~wordfaqs/HeaderFooter.htm

Footnotes are those little tiny raised numbers (superscripted numbers) that
direct one to the place where the information was found, also known as
references or citations.

Thanks for your help. I still don't know why Insert doesn't print out the
"Revised" footer when single documents are combined with other documents.

Thanks Dalya, I'm still not sure why each document with "Revised" is not
printed when combined with other documents to create a manual, but is printed
when "copy and Paste are used.

Have you inserted section breaks so that you have a separate footer for the
page you want that footer on?
