[removing all headers and footers[_2_]]

I have been sent a text MS Word 2003 file from my publisher that appears to
have the endnotes of a long text chapter listed at the end (not imbeded) but
set/formatted in some odd sort of table styles that scroll off the text to
the right off the page and that have an odd square character at the front of
each note. Each note has lines around it.

I have absolutely no experience with Word table styles, and just want to get
rid of this table formatting entirely, to get normal text.

The styles pane lists many kinds of table styles. How do I get rid of ALL of
them from the text? thanks.

They sound like Comments that have been inserted using InsertComment.

If that is correct, and you run a macro containing the following code, it
will insert the comment into the text of the document, enclosing it in
square brackets [ ]

Dim ac As Comment
With ActiveDocument
For Each ac In .Comments
ac.Reference.InsertAfter " [" & ac.Range & "]"
ac.Delete
Next ac
End With

Hi, I tried to create this in visual basic, but must be doing it wrong. What
is the tutorial on how to do this? thanks, JF
