is there a way to jump to each successive footnote in a document. I can search for 1, then 2, etc. but it would be great if it were possible to do this.

    I call this "chaining notes" and here's the way I do it.... it's clunky... but it works for me... and I can easily walk thru my "chain" and can have as many "chains" as I want.

    I create a note say... anchored to  John 3:16...

    In the note body I do this...

    Next: Rom 10:9-10

    Prev: the verse I came from. (i.e. Joh 14:6)

    This way I can walk thru my notes .... having to just remember my starting verse.  I used to do this in the margin of my paper Bible...  worked then.... works now.

    xn = Christan man=man -- Acts 11:26 "....and the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch".

    I'm wondering what you're looking for ... the literal footnote number?  I usually have footnotes showing, and have trouble seeing where the back-ref is. But on many of my resources, you have footnote asterisks (with footnotes), and references numbered (with popups),

    You say "in a document" -- are you referring to a user-created document as in a PB, or a Logos resource?

    If you're talking about a PB document (in Word), here's how you can do it:

    Ctrl+G to bring up the Go To dialog box, select Footnote in the "Go to whate" list, and then type +1 to go to the next footnote. Click Go To.

    Once you've searched for the next footnote once, you can continue along to the next subsequent one and on using Shift+F4 which repeats the most recent search or Go To command.

    oh, sorry, I meant to do this same thing in a logos book.
