Lilmod Ulelamaid,
Maybe someone else can help me.
I’m not sure that my level of help will approach even the knees of a little froggie, but I’ll give it a shot.
First, you didn’t specify, but from your posts, I’m assuming that you are using Microsoft Word. At the top of your document, there should be a row with different tabs (File Home Insert … etc). Click “References” to get the options under that tab. At the bottom of the options you should see the word Footnotes, with a small diagonal or downward arrow on the righthand corner. Click that arrow, and a footnotes dialog box will appear. With this dialog box, you can control how the footnotes are numbered in your document, including changing the starting number. Good luck!
