My office is upgrading from Word 2007 to 2016, I noticed some odd behavior while testing. When a footnote falls over to a second page, and our custom footnote continuation notice appears, there is excessive space between the footnote and the continuation notice. Also, the cont. notice is shifted off-center.



I set the cont. notice style to normal, which doesn't have any space before or after. So, that doesn't seem to be the issue.

Anyone else run into this?

Thanks for your help.

Ok, I solved this on my own: It seems the continuation separator is not supported by Word in 2013 and later.

To get the Continuation Notice to work, run this line of code:

ActiveDocument.SetCompatibilityMode (wdWord2010)
