I've messed up Microsoft Word so that the vertical ruler is altered,

make the ruler shorter.
That's probably because you need to go into Tools Options and check
the "white space between pages" box. See
http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/WhiteSpace.htm.
Also, if I highlight text, and type something, it doesn't erase the
previous text.
In the same dialog, check the "Typing replaces selection" box.
