Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

How to insert a *

peanuthead · 2009-12-07 21:53:44

Hi I'm writing an assignment and I'm using fictitious names. To do this I have put a * beside them. I want to acknowledge this in a footnote but I don't know how as when I go to insert footnote, it inserts a i for me. Can someone help? I have Word 2007 thanks

You are asked which to chose (1,2,3) or (i,ii,ii) or (*,...etc)

Least in Word 2003. It's somewhere anyways.

Insert the footnote.

Go to the end of the page, and highlight the "i" at the bottom.

Right click where you've highlighted.

Select "Note Options".

Select *, etc as your "Number format".

Send me chocolate and wine.
