Default Multiple references to the same footnote ?

Thanks, Peter, what advantages might bookmarks have over cross-referencing?

How do we put multiple references in the body of the text to the same
footnote? For example, three superscript number "3" 's in different
paragraphs that all refer to the same footnote. We also want all three
footnote references in the body to be re-numbered (updated) if another
footnote is inserted before the third footnote. Can this be done?



Insert the first footnote as usual, then use a bookmark to reference the
superscripted number in the other locations.
