Hi Joe,

That is quite some workaround you have created.  I guess that is probably
the only thing you can do at this point to get textual footnotes to number
sequentially with your bibliography  Any other suggestion I would give would
require that you add the textual footnote into your EndNote database.  Since
it will change from time to time, you can just reuse the same 10 records, as
it seems you are already doing.

For others who might be reading this for the first time, here is the
suggestion to be able to create textual footnote and references with
consistent numbers like this:



XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX(1)XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX(2)XXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX(3)XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX(4)XXXXXX
_______________________________
(1) Doe, John 1987
(2) Appleby, Mary 1991
(3) 4 miles per hour faster
(4) Coltrain, Rufus 1962

Create a new Reference Type, call that reference type "FootNote" and for the
Author type in "In Text Code" (This will act like a placeholder so you can
see it when you copy and paste the in-text citation, and when formatted will
turn into a number).  For the Title type in "Footnote Data" or something
like that (this will appear in the bibliography after formatting).

Save this new reference type which only has 2 fields.  Then add this
reference type to your style. So choose "Edit" from the "Styles" menu and
from the "Edit Styles" menu select "New Reference Type" (or if you are
confused at this point, press (F10, D, N)).  Choose your new "Footnotes"
reference type.  Add "Footnote Data" from the "Insert Field popup menu.
Save the changes to your style.

Next create some new references which contain your footnote data.  If you
think you need 10 for one paper, then create 10 new references.  Be sure you
choose the Footnote reference type from the "Insert Field" menu in your new
reference before you enter data. You can then put something in for the In
Text Code which will disappear after formatting and be replaced with a
number, and then put your footnote data into the "Footnote Data" field.
Close the reference.  Copy and paste this reference where you want it to
appear in the text as a number.

After formatting your paper, copy and paste the full formatted footnote from
the bibliography into the footnote on the page where it is cited.

This is the only workaround at this time.

Good luck!
