Can I put endnotes in a separate file
I have a manuscript in which each chapter is a separate document. I want to
keep it this way, but I would like to be able to place all the endnotes in a single, separate file. I believe the this is possible in WordPerfect, but Word doesn't have any simple way of doing it. Does anyone know of a trick for doing it, or a freeware program that might be able to do it? Thanks, Jeremy |

Can I put endnotes in a separate file
Word does not have a simple way of doing it. In a COPY of the document,
you have to convert the notes to plain text and then copy and paste them as you wish. Since they are plain text, they will keep the numbering. HOWEVER, if you have to edit such that the note numbers change, you will need to go back to the original document, make your edits, and then *repeat* the "convert to plain text and cut and paste as you wish" process. You'll need a macro to do the conversion to plain text while keeping the numbers, and MVP Doug Robbins has already written it. It's linked he http://groups.google.com/group/micro...ed53412c7a560d or he http://tinyurl.com/292o3a It doesn't need modifications. I have a manuscript in which each chapter is a separate document.
