Automatic period/full stop at the end of a footnote? [Solved]

Automatic period/full stop at the end of a footnote?

Hi,
I was not sure whether to post this here or in the "Microsoft Office Customization and Programming"....
Anyhow I have a lot of footnote is my work (more than 1000).
And on the end of every footnote there should be a period/full stop.
However, sometimes you forget them and even if you review the footnotes you might miss some of them.
Furthermore, it takes a lot of time to look at all these footnotes.
Hence, I was wondering whether there is a way how I can make sure that at every end of the footnote is a period/full stop?
Thanks!

You could use a macro which goes over all your footnotes, checks if the last character is some punctuation character, and if not, adds a period.
So something along the following lines:
Sub PeriodFootnote()
    Dim f As Footnote
    Dim c As String
       
    For Each f In ActiveDocument.Footnotes
        f.Range.Select
        c = Selection.Characters.Last
       
        If c <> "." And c <> "!" And c <> "?" Then
            f.Range.InsertAfter "."
        End If
    Next
End Sub

  1. Access the files on your computer via MY COMPUTER
  2. Under the C: drive, access the WINDOWS folder
  3. Select the SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTION folder, followed by the DOWNLOAD folder.
  4. Delete any files within this download folder.
  5. If you are unable to delete these files, open the command prompt (CMD) as the administrator, and type "net stop wuauserv" into the CMD prompt window. Press ENTER. This should allow you to delete the files from step 4.
  6. Once the files are deleted, open and run the CMD as the administrator and type "wuauclt.exe /updatenow". Press ENTER.
