How do I reference a single endnote in multiple locations?

I want 2 superscripted labels, such as 1 and 2, to appear in multiple
locations in my document and I only want two endnotes. e.g.

Textblock1. (1)
Textblock2. (1)
Textblock3. (1)
Textblock4. (2)
Textblock5. (2)

To repeat an endnote (or footnote), just insert a cross-reference to it. In
the Insert | Cross-reference dialog box, choose "Endnote" for "Reference
type," and then choose "Endnote number (formatted)" for "Insert reference
to," choose the desired note, and click Insert.

Note that the x-refs won't automatically update if you add or subtract
a note before the one in question (the original note number will); you
need to update them with F9 once in a while.

Switching to Print Preview and then back to your current view will also
update the cross-references.

Although the other answers you received are correct, there are two other
possible solutions:

a. A numbered reference list: see
http://daiya.mvps.org/biblio.htm#AlphaEndnotes.

b. The traditional solution of a full reference for the first footnote and
"Ibid." for the repeats:
1. First Author, Title, etc.
2. Ibid.
3. Ibid.
4. Second Author, Title, etc.
5. Ibid.

You're such a humanist! You'll never see an ibid. in *Science*.

But do scientific papers still use ordinary footnotes, or do they use
parenthetical references?

*Science* puts the references in endnotes in order of occurrence, with
subsequent references using the same note number. Some journals put
the reference list in endnotes in alphabetical order, so the note
numbers can appear in the article in any order at all. (Every so often
someone asks us if Word can do that -- the Citation system can't,
they'd have to be just numbered paragraphs with cross references
(which is how FrameMaker says to do endnotes!!))

Well, that would be my solution (a), then. There's no reason that the
numbered list of references has to be alphabetized (though that's what
Daiya's article is geared toward).
