See Also         Example         Applies To

Adds an endnote or footnote to the specified range.

Syntax

expression.Add(Range, Reference, Text)

expression   Required. An expression that returns an Endnotes or Footnotes object.

Range   Required Range. The range marked for the endnote or footnote. This can be a collapsed range.

Reference   Optional Variant. The text for the custom reference mark. If this argument is omitted, Word inserts an automatically numbered reference mark.

Text   Optional Variant. The text of the endnote or footnote.

Remarks

To specify a symbol for the Reference argument, use the syntax {FontName CharNum}. FontName is the name of the font that contains the symbol. Names of decorative fonts appear in the Font box in the Symbol dialog box (Insert menu). CharNum is the sum of 31 and the number corresponding to the position of the symbol you want to insert, counting from left to right in the table of symbols. For example, to specify an omega symbol (ω) at position 56 in the table of symbols in the Symbol font, the argument would be "{Symbol 87}".
