Footnotes in Word - A question

    I hope this is the right forum for this -

    I have a document with a load of footnotes on each page. Each footnote starts on a new line but I'd prefer them to go accross horizontally instead of downwards. Any idea how to do this or if it's even possible?

    I.e. I want:

    1. footnote 2. footnote 3. footnote

    rather than the standard:

    1. footnote
    2. footnote
    3. footnote

    Thanks in advance!

    Are you using word? The below is for standard footnotes - but maybe you'll have a chance to alter it as you enter it.

    Insert a footnote or an endnote
    1. In print layout view, click where you want to insert the note reference mark.
    2. On the Insert menu, click Footnote.
    3. Click Footnote or Endnote.
    4. Under Numbering, click the option you want.
    5. For Help on an option, click the question mark and then click the option.
    6. Click OK.
    7. Word inserts the note number and places the insertion point next to the note number.

    Type the note text.

    Scroll to your place in the document and continue typing.
    Note In printed documents and in printed documents that you're viewing online, Word, by default, places footnotes at the end of each page and endnotes at the end of the document. You can change the placement of footnotes so that they appear directly below the text. Similarly, you can change the placement of endnotes so that they appear at the end of each section.
