Table Footnotes

[Fred Ridder]

One answer is to not use the Table Footnote feature per se.

Instead, create a footer row (with spanned cells) and put autonumbered notes inside it. Then in your table cells, insert cross-references to the numbers of the notes. This approach allows you to reference the same note from multiple cells, and all notes will appear on each page if the table breaks across pages.
