Footnote numbering wrong after section break
I have a document with footnotes: it also contains section breaks. The last note in one section is number 31: so far so good. There follows a section without footnotes. Then a new section starts and Word has numbered the first note 36, both the note reference in the text and at the foot of the page. I have read that this can happen when tracking changes, but I have accepted all changes in the document and the numbering problem persists. When I tried to restart numbering at '32' and apply that to this section, the note was renumbered '67' if I select 'continuous' and '1' if I select 'restart each section!!!
I am using MSWord 2013 with Windows 10 and I am totally bewildered.
