Type Replacing
I am having a problem with MS Word, XP Pro Office Edition. Usually when I
highlight text I wish to replace and type what I wish to be there, it deletes the highlighted area and puts my new text there, however now when I highlight, it just puts that text in front of the old text! I would appreciate some help on this matter, as it is really quite annoying. Thanks! -- 98% of the teenage population does or has tried smoking pot.
