Hi all,

Ever since I had MS Office 03, when ever I am typing lots, when I come to edit what i've written, eg. I'm going to add one more word on a sentece, it will start to over - type or replace what I've written with that when it should just go in where I put it.

The more I type between already written text, the more of it goes when it should stay there.

Please help, thx in advace. :thumbup:

Hi you have probably hit the "Insert" Key by mistake. This toggles between "insert! and "overtype" Try opening a Word document....... type some words, attempt to alter (edit) them and if you hit a problem with characters disappearing then press the "Insert" Key once and then try to edit, see how you go Regards paws
