endnotes

[beck1]

I am trying to combine several chapters of a book, all with endnotes, using"Insert, Object, Text File". When a new chapter is added to the original the endnotes do not come across. I have tried everything. Can anyone help? I wish the endnotes to stay with each chapter, not appear at the end of theentire book. Thanks.

You'll have to insert a Next Page section break between each chapter, and then
you'll have to set the placement option for endnotes to "End of section."

For the placement option, you can right-click an existing endnote and choose
Note Options from the context menu. In the "Location" section, choose "End of
section." Make sure "Apply changes to" says "Whole document" and then click
Apply.

Also, note that if you have the "Update fields before printing" option selected
in the Word Options dialog box, try clearing it, because updated field results
may add pages. (On the other hand, usually you do want the fields to be updated
on print.)

The sort of publisher that wants chapter-endnotes is also likely to
want each chapter to begin on a recto (it makes printing offprints
easier, in case anyone still does that), so make it a "Next Page
Right" section break.

Good point, but in Word terminology that would be an Odd Page section break.

Sheesh, I waited all day to post that note so I'd remember to check
the wording!
