Thank you, Charles, but I have a different explanation. I think I've discovered what's happening. There is no problem having footnotes track with their respective columns if it is created in Word 2007. See attached.
When I open and edit this document in Word for Office 365, the column behavior starts to break down. The document in question was created in a version other than Office 365.I don't know what version--the author doesn't know. It's when any editing of the document is done in 365 that the footnotes start failing to behave. I wonder if Microsoft did this intentionally, or perhaps isn't even aware.
