Are endnotes really the end?
I have a multiple page text document. Throughout the text
were several notes that I was required to make endnotes rather than footnotes. Word, of course, formats them and places the endnotes at the end of the text. I inserted a page break so that the notes were on their own page. I wanted to insert another page break after all the endnotes so that I could continue with a bibliography- type section, but I was unable to insert a break. The "break" command was grayed out so I could not insert one. I tried cutting and pasting, but the document was recognizing everything as endnote. I don't know how to tell it to end the endnotes and allow me to continue. I know endnotes go at the end, but there are many instances when text has to follow the notes, so surely there is a way to do this....?? |

Are endnotes really the end?
They are really the end. The people who developed Word were unclear on the
concept of books with text after notes. However, there's a very easy fix. In Word 2001 and later, set Endnotes to "end of section" (instead of "end of document) and then suppress endnotes (File | Page Setup, Layout tab (or on a Mac: Format | Document)) for every section *except* the one you want the endnotes to follow. For Word 2000 and earlier, post back for a macro solution. DM "David" wrote: I have a multiple page text document.
