My mother, who is not computer savvy, revised a Word document using the "track changes" option. She had many end notes, and she moved paragraphs around that referred to end-notes, she also added new end-notes, sometimes she deleted the end-notes in a way that I find questionable - she went to the end-note and hit the delete key until all the letters were red. She also ran into problems where the entire end-note would be formatted as a superscript, or subscript, and she tried to correct those. Anyway, I made a copy of the document, I implemented "accept all changes" and then she worked on it, until she suddenly noticed that the end-note numbering was wrong. She would have end-note numbering such as 34, 35, 36, and all of a sudden 1,2,3. and then 37,38,39 In fact, there are two end-notes with the same number '4', for instance. I can't find any way to renumber it. She says that the end-note that starts with one (after the 36) was simply a new note that she added.
If anyone knows how to clean up this mess, I'd appreciate hearing from you.
