Footnote strangeness 1

[Nelviticus]

We have a Word document (created in Word XP) where all the footnotes have a line above them showing a one, a dot and a line, like this:

1._________________

This can't be selected, edited or deleted. Any idea what it is and how I can get rid of it? It appears before every group of footnotes and the number showing is always 1. It has me stumped!

In word go to normal view. under view menu click footnotes.

In the footnote pane dropdown choose footnote separator.

reset, close
