INSERTING A FOOTNOTE
 
Overview: <Insert Footnote command>
 
To insert a footnote:

   the footnote reference mark.
2. Choose Insert Footnote (Alt,I,N).
   The Footnote dialog box is displayed.
3. For automatically numbered footnotes, select
   the Auto-Numbered Reference option.
   For a different type of reference mark, type
   the character or characters you want to use
   in the Footnote Reference Mark box. For
   example, you might want to type an asterisk
   (*), or the word "note."
4. Choose OK.
   Word inserts the reference mark and moves the
   cursor and the footnote reference mark to the
   end of the document.
5. Type the footnote text.
   After you type the footnote, you can choose
   Edit Go To (Alt,E,G), or press F5 and Enter,
   to move back to the reference mark in the
   document.
