Refer to the same footnote or endnote more than once
- Click where you want the reference located.
- On the Insert menu, point to Reference, and then click Cross-reference.
- In the Reference type box, click Footnote or Endnote.
- In the For which box, click the note to which you want to refer.
- In the Insert reference to box, click Footnote number or Endnote number.
- Click Insert, and then click Close.
The new reference is inserted as unformatted text rather than as superscript.
Format the new reference as superscript
- Select the footnote.
- If the Styles and Formatting task pane is not open, click Styles and Formatting
on the Formatting toolbar.
- In the Styles and Formatting task pane, click Custom in the Show box.
- In the Format Settings dialog box, select the Footnote Reference or Endnote Reference check boxes, and then click OK.
- In the Styles and Formatting list, click Footnote Reference or Endnote Reference.
Superscript formatting is applied to the footnote.
If you just click the arrow beside Footnote Reference or Endnote Reference, a style will not be applied.
Note The new number that Microsoft Word inserts is actually a cross-reference to the original reference mark. If you add, delete, or move a note, Word updates the cross-reference number when you print the document or when you select the cross-reference number and then press F9. If you have trouble selecting the cross-reference number by itself, try selecting some surrounding text along with it, and then press F9.
