Use a "For...Next" loop with the Footnotes, Endnotes, or Comments collection
instead of the "For Each...Next" loop.

The following Visual Basic for Applications macro example uses a "For...Next"
loop to extract the endnotes for a specified paragraph.

      Sub ReturnNotesInParagraph()
         Dim iCount As Integer
         Dim oNote As Object
         Dim iParaNum As Integer
         ' Set the paragraph to return notes
         iParaNum = 1
         ' Note: If the specified paragraph does not exist
         ' in the active document, an error will occur.
         If ActiveDocument.Paragraphs.Count >= iParaNum Then
            Set oNote = ActiveDocument.Paragraphs(iParaNum).Range.Endnotes
            For iCount = 1 To oNote.Count
               MsgBox oNote(iCount).Range.Text
            Next
         Else
            MsgBox "The specified paragraph does not exist."
         End If
      End Sub
