Thanks! Just need to add this line and now it's working:

Code:

activedocument.Styles(wdStyleFootnoteReference).Font.Hidden=false
activedocument.ActiveWindow.View.ShowHiddenText=False

Now I'm looking for a way to get rid of the blank space (chr(32)) before the footnote text.
This is not working (it's removing entire footnote):

Code:

ActiveDocument.Footnotes(1).Reference.Text = Replace(ActiveDocument.Footnotes(1).Reference.Text, Chr(32), "")

Thanks!
