'Article ID: Q78029

Creation Date: 03-NOV-1991

Revision Date: 09-SEP-1996' The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Word for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a, 2.0, 2.0a, 2.0a-CD, 2.0b, 2.0c, 6.0, 6.0a, 6.0c

SUMMARY

In Microsoft Word for Windows, you can delete the footnote or annotation reference in the footnote or annotation pane without removing it in the main text. When editing the footnote/annotation in the pane, if you select the footnote/annotation reference by itself or with a portion of the text, you can delete the reference. The corresponding reference in the main text remains, as does the remainder of the text in the footnote/annotation; however, its reference in the pane is gone.

WORKAROUND


 * 1) Select any remaining footnote or annotation reference marks, either in the document window or the footnote/annotation pane.
 * 2) From the Edit menu, choose Copy.
 * 3) Position the insertion point in the pane where you want the footnote or annotation reference to appear.
 * 4) From the Edit menu, choose Paste.

The footnote or annotation reference is replaced. If it was an automatic numbered reference, it is automatically and correctly renumbered. Steps to Reproduce Problem with Footnotes


 * 1) Type some text in a document.
 * 2) From the Insert menu, choose Footnote. Choose the OK button to insert an automatic numbered footnote.
 * 3) Type some text in the footnote pane.
 * 4) In the footnote pane, select the footnote reference, by itself or with some (but not all) of the footnote text.
 * 5) Press the DEL key.

Steps to Reproduce Problem with Annotations


 * 1) Type some text in a document.
 * 2) From the Insert menu, choose Annotation.
 * 3) Type some text in the annotation pane.
 * 4) In the annotation pane, select the annotation reference, by itself or with some (but not all) of the annotation text.
 * 5) Press the DEL key.

The footnote/annotation reference and any text you selected is deleted; however, the footnote/annotation reference in the main document window remains. REFERENCES
