"cbfunky" wrote in message ... First of all, here is what is looks like: http://www.geocities.com/cbfunky/prob The first picture is from a backup file (thank god for those!), the second one is from the current document. I just noticed that all of my footnotes are gone, or better: they are not being displayed (because when I hover the cursor over the reference, the baloon thingy with the text shows up). I already tried the following: 1) View - Normal - Display - Footnotes: The footnotes show up in a seperate pane but they do NOT show in the document and they are NOT being printed! 2) Copying the whole text into a new doc - doesnt change anything. 3) Inserting a new footnote on the same page as an already existant one: until five minutes ago the footnotes would show up until I finished typing the new one, but now Word only keeps a) crashing or b) re- numbering pages for the end of all times. Gnaaaaa, I'm desperate! Please help me! Thanks, cbfunky . . |

One suggestion that may be completely off the wall but might make a
difference is to check the Compatibility Options (Tools | Options | Compatibility) and make sure they are set to Word 2002. Also, make sure that the table is not wrapped (Table Properties | Table | Wrapping: None). It's hard to imagine what might be causing this problem, but if you would like to send (to my email--don't post it here) a *small* sample of a document experiencing this issue, I'll be happy to take a look at it. -- Suzanne S.

Thanks for the offer but I found a little trick around
the problem: I insert a footnote anywhere on the same page above the table, set its color to white, and delete the space between those two words (so it looks like regular text). This is where I write the footnote remark. Next I delete the original footnote and replace it with a number formatted so it looks like a footnote but doesn't have a link underneath it. Not very elegant but it gets the job done.
