If the footnotes are in a different file than the main document, and that second file is not a Word file, VBA might not be the right tool to automate the task.



A third-party scripting tool, like Macro Express or AutoHotkey, might be a better bet.


However, unless you have hundreds (or thousands) of footnotes, it might be faster to insert the task manually than to automate the task via macros!
