The insert key will not allow substitution of any letters or numbers in 2007,
whereas word 2003 did it without fail. Office 2007 is a step backwards by at
least 20 yrs. Outlook express in office 2007 will not spell check except in
FRENCH (HOW INSULTING IS THIS?)

In Word 2003: I used to be able to select text and then start typing and
Word would replace the selected text with what I was typing. Now when I
select text and begin typing, Word inserts the new letters next to the
selected text. I don't know why it changed. I would like to know how to
change it back. [Pressing the 'insert' button doesn't make a difference]
Thanks
