here is my elemantry problem that you may know the answer to. i am
inserting
words in middle of a paragraph or sentence. with my mouse i click the
location for the added word. i enter the word and attempt to add a new
word
and leave the rest alone.however the next letter is bumped away to make
place
for my new letter.this didnot always occur and am sure it is related to a
setting that i unknowingly created. i use ms word 2003
