I have a document that was made using footnotes, and I need
to change them
all to endnotes. Is there a way to convert them all at
once without having to
cut and paste each one? I'm using Word 2K and Win98SE.
Thanks for your help.
This should work: Go to the beginning of the document. Click
on "View" then "Footnotes". In the footnotes view, click on
any footnote then hit control-A (to mark all the
footnotes). Right-click on any footnote and pick "Convert to
endnote". Vwalla your footnotes have been converted to
endnotes.
In most cases they will also have been renumbered in
lower-case Roman numerals. If that is not to your liking, go
to the beginning of the document. (Anywhere before the first
footnote/endnote.) Do this:
alt-i(nsert) > footnote > endnote > {Change number format to
your liking} > insert > {Type something. "xyzzy" will do.} >
{Go to the reference number in the text for the footnote you
just entered and delete it.}
