I need to make footnotes for a college paper and can't find them in Word. When I go to help it tells me to check the references tab(which I can't find) and offers no further help. Please help.
Footnotes are different than the footer, I believe.
nightmare, does your Word toolbar look something like this?
You can see the References tab just to the right of the Page Layout tab, or just below the "D" of "Document1." Click that and you should see an "Insert Footnote" button. Just place the cursor in your text after the word you want the footnote to reference, then hit the button.

Edit: I only have 2010 at work so I'm flying blind here.

A little late, but LibreOffice is good, much better than OpenOffice.
Go to Tools -> 'Footnotes/Endnotes' to set it up. Then Insert -> 'Footnote/Endnote' to add one.
