Thanks G.M. That did it. Now I'm wondering how that option was disabled if I
never did it myself?
Thanks again,

Erik

Previously, when I highlighted the text I wanted to replace, I could
then copy and paste new text over the top of it to replace it. Now,
instead of replacing it, when I paste the new text, the older text
still remains. It gets pushed further down in the document. I realize
I can highlight it and "cut", but it's an extra step that wasn't
necessary before and I compile a company publication everyday so it's
frustrating.

Thanks
