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?
