Some Footnotes in Tables Do Not Display or Print
I have a document that is comprised primarily of two-column tables (the left
column being used for a topic or theme statement and the right column being the associated discussion). I edit this document on two different systems - a desktop with W2000/Word 2002 SP3 & a laptop with XP/Word 2003. I have inserted footnotes in several places in these tables. Some of them display and print correctly at the bottom of the page. Others, even though they are clearly embedded in the table, never show up anywhere on any displayed or printed page. I haven't yet been able to determine what characteristic causes some to be there and others to not. I have tried breaking up rows of the table into individual tables, but that doesn't make any difference. The document displays and prints the same in both of my versions of Word. Any help on getting this corrected will be greatly appreciated. |

Some Footnotes in Tables Do Not Display or Print
Table footnotes tend to appear on the last page of the table, I believe.

Some Footnotes in Tables Do Not Display or Print
presumably Hi Suzanne -
I might be able to live with that (since I could break a single table into successive smaller ones if I had to). However, in this case, those missing footnotes do not display anywhere in the document even when I do that. I don't remember which computer I made the initial entry on for those. Is it possible that Word 2002 is doing something it shouldn't, and Word 2003 doesn't recognize or correct it? Mike "Suzanne S.

Is it possible you created endnotes rather than footnotes? When you say
"anywhere in the document," do you mean *anywhere*? And what view is this in? -- Suzanne S.

No - they are definitely footnotes. I can locate each one with
Edit-Find-Footnote Mark, the numbering is sequential, and I can see the text when I mouse over the footnote mark. In Print layout, some of the footnotes appear and some of them don't. I have even printed out a hard copy of the entire document, and they don't appear anywhere on the printed document. "Suzanne S.

Is there a chance the 'missing' ones have somehow got formatted as Hidden.
Check Tools Options Print tab Include with Document section Hidden text - and see if they print then. -- Enjoy, Tony "Michael Leu" wrote in message ... No - they are definitely footnotes.

Thanks for the thought Tony. I tried it, but that doesn't have any effect.

If you'd like to send a sample/portion of the problem doc, I'll have a look.
