You're right Andrew, it does. You're a genius

As per my promise I'll now take a holiday from imposing upon you.

However i do have one last question I thought you might be able to easily answer...

Initially when I ran the macro it left a white square in the text where the footnote number had been. I had been looking online and in the symbols section of Word trying to find the square's character code so i could delete it. It took me about 1 and 1/2 hours to realise that it was caused by having a space before the footnote number in the footnotes range. When I deleted the space and then ran the macro all was good.

Any idea what that square is, or if it has a code in case we meet again? It didn't match any code I could find.

I've attached a sample with the squares in it.

Regardless of the answer to that, thank you once again for your very generous help.
