If you try to place a new footnote while the insertion point is located within an existing footnote, all that Word does is duplicate the footnote mark at the beginning of the existing footnote. It doesn't provide a way to add footnotes within footnotes, however. Word does a great job of creating footnotes, using either your own footnote marks or automatic marks. (For those with a linguistic or literary bent, you can find out about footnotes within footnotes by referring to a style guide, such as Kate Turabian's book, Manual for Writers, or the Chicago Manual of Style.) In some types of documents you may actually need footnotes within footnotes, such that a footnote can be footnoted, with the "sub footnote" appearing in the regular flow of the main footnotes. Footnotes are a common feature in many types of documents.
