Lastly, you can merge two documents to form one big file and then harmonize the footnote numbers. To combine the two documents, follow the steps: Insert -> Objects -> text from file. If we have more than two documents to merge, we can repeat the steps. The merged documents will have the same format.

When you want to automatically update the supra reference numbers, do this: Click your cursor anywhere inside the footnote fields. Hit Ctrl A. Hit F9.

Click Insert 2192 Reference 2192 Footnote... to open the "Footnote and Endnote" window. Select "Footnote", and then choose your numbering option. You can have Word number your footnotes automatically, or you can choose a custom symbol to insert.

Click inside any footnote in the document. Click the Home tab. From the Select dropdown in the Editing group, choose Select All Text With Similar Formatting (No Data), as shown in Figure D. Press F9 and then click Yes (once for each footnote, which is a bit tedious).

Word doesn't renumber the footnotes because the footnote is still therealbeit marked for deletion. When the changes are accepted or rejected, then Word will renumber the footnotes accordingly.

In order to update the cross-references, place your cursor in a footnote and select the text of all footnotes by pressing Ctrl A. Once the footnote text is selected, press F9.

Do not place multiple footnotes at the same point in your text (e.g. 1, 2, 3). If you need to cite multiple sources in one sentence, you can combine the citations into one footnote, separated by semicolons: 1. Hulme, Romanticism and Classicism; Eliot, The Waste Land; Woolf, Modern Fiction, 11.
