Hi,
the documentation on the <FOOTNOTE> tag (Users Guide Part 1
- page 13-84) says that the format is :
<FOOTNOTE>({text}\{char})
and the first example on the next page supports this. However, example
2, LSE and VAX DOCUMENT all say that the syntax is
<FOOTNOTE>({char}\{text})

{<FOOTENOTE> discrepancies}
Your right, however, could be the fact that the 2nd example illustrates
a <footnote> within a table. See page 13-84 of SDMLUG, Part I. When
placing a footnote in a table, always use a number as the footnote
character....
Hope that this inconsistency is a bug and not a feature.

This is definitely a documentation error in the Field Test User's
Guide. This was noted in the Release Notes that went out with the
documentation for BL7. Please make sure to get a copy of the R.N. and
read them through. They can be found on-line in Note 42 of this
Notes file.
The syntax of the <footnote> tag is <FOOTNOTE>(char\footnote-text).
You can use a non-numeric character in a footnote in a table, but
this restricts the number of footnotes allowed.
