This arrangement suits me be better than traditional footnotes or grouping all notes at the end of a manuscript. I use this feature to group notes at the end of their respective chapters. Left to the default setting, Word will let you enter text after an endnote, but it will interpret it as part of the endnote, and not a new section. When you’re ready to start a new section, enter a break by choosing Break from the Insert menu and then selecting the Next Page option (Section Break Types) in the Break dialog box. Simply enter text and notes as you normally would. In the Footnotes group, click the small icon at the bottom-right.If you’re using Word 2007, follow these steps: Choose End of Section from the Endnotes dropdown list.In the resulting Footnote and Endnote dialog box, click the Endnotes option.From the Insert menu, choose References and then select Footnote.

Here’s how to position endnotes at the end of a section, instead of at the end of the document: Most of us won’t ever need this much flexibility, but if you do, you’ll appreciate this feature. Select EndNote Cite While You Write (If it is unchecked), and then click OK.

(Word 2007: Office button (top-left) > Word Options > Add-ins) Choose COM Add-ins in the Manage drop-down menu, and then click the Go button. Word will position endnotes at the end of a section, if you tell it to. Please follow the steps below to enable EndNote tools in COM Add-Ins: Word: File > Options > Add-ins. But you’re not stuck with that arrangement. When adding endnotes to a Word document, you can position them at the end of a section instead of at the end of the document.īy default, Word places endnotes at the end of the document, which is what most of us want.
