Linda, A table footnote is different to a text footnote, as you know, and I don't think there is a way to change that status. So I guess the only way around it takes two paths: 1. You take the text out of its table and put a frame behind it with no text run around. Don't how it would hold up to movement though. 2. Create a dummy footnote with white text in the main flow, and in the table superscript the footnote number.
