Thanks for replying Kyle.

I'm using 'C-u C-c C-x f r' and it isn't changing the footnote
numbering! I am adding file-2 to file-1 and then using the key mantra,
but the footnotes are not changing. In file-1 the last footnote is 756,
and in file-2 the first footnote is 670 (I've no idea why it suddenly
starts at 670, but it does.)

So where should the cursor be when using the key mantra please? On the
new chapter heading? On the first [fn:670]? Or where please?

Thanks
  Sharon.
