[mso] Re: New text eats old text (Word setting?)

Try pressing your Insert Key ONCE, before you type the correction. That
should stop the Pacman behaviour...

Subject: [mso] New text eats old text (Word setting?)



        I've had a problem with word processing that has stumped me for years.
 Sometimes when I am editing/making corrections to something I've typed --
it can be in a Word document, in an internet dialog box, in something to be
posted to a bulletin board, and most recently, in an Outlook97 Note -- the
new text "eats" the existing text.  I'll place my cursor where I want to
make the corrections or additions, and as I type, the new letters erase and
replace what was already typed.  WHY???  How do I fix it?  Is there some
setting in Word that is causing this?
Thanks, Ess
