rick@seisvx.SINet.slb.com, The command you're looking for is \footnotetext. This should produce the footnote text without the mark. You can embed ${}^{*}$'s in the inline text and at the start of the footnote to get the asterisk. I found this quickly in Bill Cheswick's Permuted Index. If you want a copy, e-mail me, and I'll send you the particulars, or email ches@research.att.com for info. This is a free pub of AT&T, and no TeX nor LaTeX shop should be without copies! raybro
