How do I change margin of dividing line bet. footnote & text?
If you are using Word 2007, switch to Draft view. On the References tab,
click Show Notes to display the footnote pane. (In Word 2003, switch to Normal view, and click View | Footnotes to show the footnote pane.) Choose the Footnote Separator item and then click the Reset button. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "Lofrasso" wrote in message ... the divider between footnote and body of text is on a different margin.

"Reset" will make it take on the attributes of the Normal style,
probably including the indentation. If you want your Footnote Separator to be fllush left, then when you're there, you can either drag the upper triangle to the left in the Ruler, or you can apply a style to it that doesn't have an indentation. I use a style called NormalFirst for the unindented paragraph right after a heading, and that works fine for the Separator. You'll also need to do this with the Footnote Continuation Separator, in case you have long notes that break onto the next page. This is pretty much obligatory in a printed book, but the Footnote Separator itself often is indented to match tbe paragraph indentation of the text.

In my experience, the Reset button primarily affects the contents of the
separator, and it doesn't reset the style. However, you are right that Reset might not do the trick; it was merely intended to be a first suggestion. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "grammatim" wrote in message ...
