Hi Husna Please pass on to your friend the following info taken from the help pages of MS Office 2007. I hope someone else will help with the second question. >> On the References tab, in the Footnotes group, click Insert Footnote or >> Insert Endnote. Keyboard shortcut To insert a subsequent footnote, press CTRL+ALT+F. To insert a subsequent endnote, press CTRL+ALT+D. By default, Word places footnotes at the end of each page and endnotes at the end of the document. To make changes to the format of footnotes or endnotes, click the Footnotes Dialog Box Launcher, and do one of the following: In the Number format box, click the format that you want. To use a custom mark instead of a traditional number format, click Symbol next to Custom mark, and then choose a mark from the available symbols. Click Insert. Note This will not change the existing symbols. It will only add new ones. Word inserts the note number and places the insertion point next to the note number. Type the note text. Double-click the footnote or endnote number to return to the reference mark in the document. << Carlos. ----- Original Message ----- From: <mail@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, January 31, 2008 7:28 PM Subject: [jaws-uk] foot notes and spell check > Hi, > > a friend at university needs to be able to do foot notes in her essays. > could you give some step by step instructions as to how she can do this > easily? she is using jaws 8 and word 2007. > > also she gets the word 'selected' spelt out every time she wants to hear > the suggestions in spell check. is there a way to stop this please? > > thanks, Husna > > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] > ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: > ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > ** and in the Subject line type > ** unsubscribe > ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the > ** immediately-following link:- > ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] > ** or send a message, to > ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq > ** To leave the list, click on the immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe] ** If this link doesn't work then send a message to: ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** and in the Subject line type ** unsubscribe ** For other list commands such as vacation mode, click on the ** immediately-following link:- ** [mailto:jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx?subject=faq] ** or send a message, to ** jaws-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the Subject:- faq
