Is it possible to assign own number format for the footnotes?

[avkokin]

Word 2003. When I insert the footnote I see the dialogue "Footnote and
Endnote". In group "Number format" there is number format 1,2,3, at
alias. But I need to other format: 1), 2), 3) etc.
Question: Is it possible to assign own number format for the
footnotes or not? And in Word 2007?
Thank you.

I don't think that it is possible to modify the format, but it would be
possible to run a macro after the document has been created to insert the )

Yes, there are lots of numbering formats (most of them for use in other
languages), but not a), b), c).

There is for example

ActiveDocument.Footnotes.NumberStyle = wdNoteNumberStyleNumberInCircle
for circled numbers (up to 20 only!),

ActiveDocument.Footnotes.NumberStyle = 5
for 1., 2., 3., ...

ActiveDocument.Footnotes.NumberStyle = 57
for -1-, -2-, -3-, ...

There are some quite weird ones like 8 for hexadecimal numbers.

Word2007, it seems, didn't add new numbering styles for Foot-/Endnotes,
although a few now work that didn't in 2003, like 6 for "One Two Three ..."
(superscripted).
