Problem

Solutions: The steps below will allow users to create a Footnote line (the line above the footnote) that is 1 1/2 inches long:
1.      Go into Document Initial Codes (Shift-F8, 3, 2).
2.      Set L/R margins (Shift-F8, 1, 7) Left=1.5", Right=5.5" (Left margin added to desired line length 1.5+1.5=3. Subtract that from 8.5" to get the right margin setting of 5.5").
3.      Exit back to document by pressing F7 three times.
4.      Set the Footnote Option Line Separating Text and Footnotes to Margin to Margin (Ctrl-F7, 1, 4, 7, 3).
5.      Exit to the document with F7.
6.      Set L/R margins back (Shift-F8, 1, 7, 1.5, 1).
7.      Press Ctrl-F7, 1, when the user wants to create a footnote.
8.      Press Left Arrow to put the Margin codes in front of the note number so the footnote will not have a hard return after the note number that cannot be deleted.
9.      Set Margins again (Shift-F8, 1, 7, 1, Enter, 1.5, Enter).
Since steps 7-9 should be done in each footnote, a macro could be created that would press Left Arrow and enter the Margin codes.
