Endnotes and sectioning

[shorabali]

Hey, I am typing up my thesis and I am doing it in chapters. I want to put
end notes at the end of each chapter but how do I section off each chapter in
the document so i can apply end notes for each rather than endnotes for the
whole document?

Insert a section break whenever you want to start a new section. In Word
2007, click the Page Layout tab of the ribbon, and then click Breaks | Next
Page. In the Footnote and Endnote dialog box (which you can display by
right-clicking an existing endnote and choosing Note Options from the
context menu), make sure to pick "End of section" under "Location." When you
are done, click Apply.

I have tried this (in Word 2007) and still the endnotes persist in being at
the end of the document instead of the end of the relevant section. I have
tried starting from scratch with a new document, setting up the sections with
just a little text in each and still have problems. Can you explain?

Make sure that the "Suppress endnotes" box is not checked on the Layout tab
of the Page Setup dialog for each section.

In the Page Setup dialog box, make sure the "Suppress endnotes" option is
cleared for each section.

To display the Page Setup dialog box for the section containing the
insertion point, click the Page Layout tab, and then click the dialog
launcher button (the little arrow on the bottom right) of the Page Setup
group.
