In one document of a multi-document project the footnote numbers are regular
numbers like3 instead of superscript. I figured out how to change them
individually, but I can't figure out what I did differently that caused this
document to do the numbers differently, nor can I figure out how to change it
back. I am using Word 2007. Thanks!
 
Footnote numbers should have the Character Style "Footnote Reference"
applied to them, and "Footnote Reference" normally contains nothing
but Superscript format. Make sure that it's still that way in your
Footnote Reference style.

If Footnote Reference style has somehow not been applied to the
footnote references, you can (re)apply it with Find/Replace (Ctrl-H).
With the cursor in the Find What? box, go to More > Special and choose
Footnote Mark (or just type ^f); then tab the cursor to the Replace
With box, go to Format > Style and choose Footnote Reference, and
click Replace All.
 
Make sure that the Footnote Reference style in the document is actually
defined as superscript.

This morning I got an email from "egghead cafe" (see bottom of this
message) telling me an answer had been posted to my query. The link in
the email didn't go anywhere (and when I got to my newsgroups, these
two messages weren't here yet).

What up wit dat?
