SYMPTOMS

When you are searching for a footnote, and choose Footnote Mark from the Special button in the Find dialog box, Word only finds the footnote references in the document and not the actual footnotes.

CAUSE

The Search option is set to Down or Up, rather than All.

RESOLUTION

Change the Search option to All, and search again. Word now searches the footnote page of the document, rather than just the body of the document.

Additional query words: searching misses missing missed skipped skips
