Formatting in Word 2007
Posted on 2010-11-24
I am using Word 2007.
I have a lengthy document with footnotes. I have converted the footnotes into endnotes. I necy added four or five pages of an index directly after the endnotes.
I want to lay out this index in 2 columns. However, it seems, the Column option is NOT available because the Index is situated within the footnote-endnote area.
How do I get round this?
Is it possible to exit the endnote area in a document and add normal text -so that page 277 (for example) is the last page of endnotes and page 278 (the next page) is is a normal page (not composed in the space for footnotes or endnotes)?
I'm not sure whether I have explained myself properly.

Try inserting a table into the endnote, split it into 2 columns and make the border transparent.
Does this achieve something like what your looking for?

I tried the Table idea. I created the table, but when I tried to paste in the index I kept getting the following message:
'you cannot put section breaks into a header, footer, endnote, footnote, comment, text box, callout or macro'.
I also inserted a section break before the endnotes commenced. I then tried to insert another section break at the end of the endnotes (sorry the pun) without success. Keep getting this same message as above:
'you cannot put section breaks into a header, footer, endnote, footnote, comment, text box, callout or macro'.

Enable the button that shows all the hidden formatting / breaks etc (as shown in the image).
Make sure your not copying any section breaks or any other special formatting like that into the table.

I have enabled the button. There is nothing strange as far as I can see. If I attempt to paste the Index into the table I get that message: you cannot put section breaks into a header, footer, endnote, footnote, comment, text box, callout or macro'
If I paste the Index just before the endnote area starts, it pastes perfectly. But I want to paste it AFTER the endnotes finish. I am unable to insert a section break at the end of the endnotes.
