let footnote start on same line as previous footnote
How can I set up footnotes so that instead of each one starting a new paragraph, they are continuous? E.g. instead of (1) Freud, 1937 (2) Gates, 2002 I want to get: (1) Freud, 1937 (2) Gates, 2002 Thanks....

Lay out Footnotes like Word 6.x/95/97
Version of Word 2003: This is an option in Word 2003 Tools>Options>Compatibility. Is this early feature preferable to the way Word 2003 innately handles footnotes? If so, why? I work with loads of footnotes and would like any assistance Word can offer in this respect. If changing this option makes any difference, I would be more than happy to do it....

Direct Formatting vs. Character Formatting
Version of Word 2003: I would like to know what would be the best way to preserve textual formatting in a document which I will be sending to an editor. I have multiple instances where there is italics and bold text. Would it be best to create a style called "Italics" and assign it the Ctrl + I shortcut? And likewise for the bold? Or is there a better way of going about this? The editor ...

Can you tell me how do I make it so that the beginning of each chapter falls on the right side of the book. Also, I would like to format the headers, using Roman numerals on the upper corners of each page of the introduction, foreward, etc. and Arabic numbers for the body of the book (also on the upper corners)....

New to Word 2007 - What would you call this feature / option?
If I know what is was called, I could look it up.

What would you call this feature (Margin layout, Margin override, Style?) and how can I do it in my own document using Word 2007. Thanks -- DMT...

Spell Check and Hyphenation
Version of Word 2003: I have several documents containing numerous words in Greek and Latin. If I run a spell check it flags these words as misspellings. If I push "Ignore" I fear that I will lose my hyphenation for that word. Will Word 2003 cease to hyphenate these words if I click "ignore"? Any input will be much appreciated....

Insert File Name
I'm new to Word 2007 (used WordPerfect for many years). I want to insert the file name in many of my document forms and I find the instructions to do this are quite convoluted. In WordPerfect I had a simple icon in the tool bar. All I had to do was click it and the file name would appear. Is there an easier way to insert the file name my documents? Can I put an icon on the Quick Acc...

"Bordering" Paragraphs
I use Word 2000 (which crashes intermittently on VISTA, but that's the subject for another thread). I have tried to mark up papers using a variety of WORD tools, including suggesting a writer delete an entire paragraph. I Select the paragraph, then go to Borders and Shading. I choose Box, and then Text. What happens is that the paragraph IS selected, but the borders encircle each line o...

Tabs in word documents like Excel for multiple separate pages
Word should have multiple tab pages like Excel does. This would be great for doing reports and keeping data separate but in one document. Also great for writing a book or papers with chapters (tab 1 is chapter 1, tab 2 is chapter 2) all in one document and so much easier to jump to something. Great for planning (tab 1 is budget, tab 2 is a list of guests, tab 3 is vendor contact info, ...

How tell whether footnote reference is a reference v. cross-refere
Footnote 'references' look the same as 'cross-references' to the same footnotes. I understand the logic there -- you want more than one reference to the same footnote, one that will also update with any removal of existing footnotes, or addition of new ones. But how can you be sure whether you are looking at the footnote or the cross-reference? Is there any other way besides searchi...

Adding a new page
Hi, I have what I hope is an easy question. I've begun a two-page resume. The first page is two columns, and it looks good. However, I'm unable to add another page. When I put the cursor at the bottom of the page, and try to insert a page, no matter what I do the new (blank) page comes before the original page. How do I add a blank page to a page with columns? Thanks. ...

envelope requests two paper types
I downloaded a template from the Miscrosoft website for a #10 Envelope. When I go to print it, however, it seems to send two requests to my printer for two different paper types; "envelope" and "cover". I've checked all the settings that I can find in Page Layout and everything looks ok. The source is the "Multi-Paper Feed" and the paper type is "envelope". Any idea where it would be get...

Word 2008 Save as PDF - BAD results
I have a Word 2008 document that I created. I needed to have two vertical columns of thumbnail images (of paintings), with columns of info about the paintings. I created a 4-column table in Word, with about 20 or so rows. I placed the thumbnail images and the text in their proper "cells", and the document looks great. However, I need to send the doc as a PDF file to someone who does not ...
