help! footnote symbol causes footnote to appear 10 pages earlier

G

hi, I need urgent help: in a "word" doc., I have to create footnotes. I have
one reference and footnote on page 6 and the next reference is on page 16,
but the second footnote gets created on page 6, right after the first
footnote. I need each to be on same page. this feels like a "bug", since I
have lots of experience with doing footnotes and I don't get why it's doing
this.

If anyone knows how to solve this problem, please answer as soon as possible.
thanks a lot!

Sometimes, footnotes are on the wrong page, but usually not that far
away. See http://word.mvps.org/faqs/formatting/FootnoteOnDiffPage.htm
for some suggestions.

Another thing to consider: There could be some corruption in the
document. Press Ctrl+A to select the whole document, press Shift+Left
arrow to deselect the final paragraph, then copy and paste into a new
file. Does that fix things?
