Footnotes for Tables
I have a table that I created that is many pages long. One of the columns in the header of the table needs to be footnoted. I inserted the footnote, however, it only appears on the first page of the table. Is there any way to have it appear on all pages that have that tables heading on it? Or is this going to be a manual process where I will need to add in a footer and manually type the note in?
Also, the number for the footnote is flowing through all the headers of each page for the table b/c I used the table properties function "Repeat as header row at the top of each page". Any help is greatly appreciated. |

By design, footnotes only exist on the page in which they're inserted. If something needs to appear on every page, it probably shouldn't be in a footnote. Using Section breaks either side of the table to isolate the portion containing the table, however, you could put the material into the page footer.

Thank you.
I did use the section breaks and applied them to each table as needed and so forth. I was hoping that word was smart enough to input on each page necessary. |

Replication on multiple pages is not part of what footnotes are for, so it's not even a question of whether Word is 'smart' enough. You're unlikely to find any word processor that would do this.
