Kirsten, I have tried this in OOo and whilst the footnotes transfer fine to the end of the report the references are still incorrect.
There is a possibility (and I put it no stronger than that) that the problem arises after there have been multiple sources attached to one Event. I need to look further at this and it may be complicated by other factors.
