Endnotes in a table

[Peter]

Hi.
(Word 2007 [dk])

In my document I have a lot of endnotes. Most of the notes are
hyperlinks to other documents. Is it possible to format the endnotes
as a table where column 1 is the endnotenumber, column 2 the endnote
(words) and column 3 is open for me to enter the hyperlink ?

Regards

Peter

An actual table might be difficult, but you could certainly add tab stops to
the Endnote Text style. Create a new endnote (which inserts the endnote
reference number), press Tab to get to the words and Tab again for the
hyperlink. Naturally, this would work only if both verbiage and links were
short, neither of which is likely to be the case.

This would be easier to achieve if you were creating a numbered
(alphabetized) reference list instead of endnotes (see
http://daiya.mvps.org/biblio.htm#AlphaEndnotes). This could be set up as a
table with the paragraph numbers in the first column and the rest as you
describe. It could still be easily alphabetized (by sorting on the text
column); the downside is the extra effort of inserting cross-references
instead of endnote references.
