There are two factors at work here.

1. If you have set endnotes to appear at the end of your document rather
than the end of each section, then you have to go to some extra effort to
add text after the endnotes (Word is very literal-minded about "end of
document"); for chapters, you need to set the endnotes to appear at the end
of each section (if a chapter contains more than one section, you can
suppress them for all the sections but the last).

2. It can be very difficult to work around endnotes in Print Layout view.
Switch to Normal view, in which they are not displayed, and you will find it
easier.

Dear all, I hope i'm in the correct forum. Here is my problem: I have
two chapters to fit together. They both have endnotes. What I want is
the first chapter and its endnotes to finish and the second chapter to
start on a new page (with page numbers continuing all the way through).
The problem is that when I paste my 2nd chapter it is still in the
endnote field of the 1st chapter. I want to be able to go to a normal
layout but the endnote field remains and I end of with my 2nd chapter
as extended endnote format. I'm sure there is a way of ending the
endnote field so as to continue in a normal page payout, but I am lost
as to how I do this.
Many thanks,
