You can double-click the footnote number to return to the main body of the
document (this works in the opposite direction, too).

Double-click the footnote or endnote number and it will return to the
reference mark in the document.

Or just click back in the document body if it's visible above the
footnote/endnote pane.

Logically, one would think that should be *first* suggestion given. Too
easy, perhaps? g

Do you know if there is a keyboard shortcut to get back into the body of the
document? (That way I don't have to take my hands off the keyboard.)

Thanks,
Sharon

You could double-click the footnote reference.

(That way I don't have to take my hands off the keyboard.)


If you use Ctrl+Alt+F to insert a footnote, you could use the macro below so
the same shortcut takes you back to the text.
That's the way Ctrl+Alt+F used to work anyway until a few versions ago...
until it was broken.

Just paste the macro below into your normal.dot ...

Regards,
Klaus



Sub InsertFootnoteNow()
' Replaces built-in command InsertFootnoteNow,
' built-in keyboard shortcut: Alt+Ctrl+F

If Selection.StoryType = wdFootnotesStory Then
' return to main text:
With ActiveWindow
Select Case .ActivePane.View.Type
Case wdPrintView, wdReadingView, _
wdWebView, wdPrintPreview
.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument
Case Else
.ActivePane.Close
End Select
End With
If Selection.Characters.Last.Style = _
ActiveDocument.Styles(wdStyleFootnoteReference) Then
Selection.Move Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
End If
Else
' insert footnote:
Selection.Footnotes.Add Range:=Selection.Range
End If
End Sub

Strictly speaking, Shift+F5 takes you to to the last edit point, which isn't
necessarily in the paragraph containing the footnote reference. For example,
it could be somewhere within the footnote text.
