When I insert a footnote in Word 2007 it automatically adds 3 hard returns
between the footnote separator and the footnote text. I can't click on the
separator or the hard returns to delete them. What must I do to delete the
space, please?

Switch to Draft view. On the References tab, click Show Notes. In the
footnote pane, choose the Footnote Separator item. You can now delete any
excessive formatting (or contents such as blank paragraphs) from the
separator.
