How do I add letters to a sentence without typing over existing w.
I was in the middle of writing a report for class, when I decided to add a
word before another one. As I started typing my added word, it began erasing my previos word. Ex: "...cut loose any dead weight vigorously." When I typed "immediately and" before "vigorously", it typed it over "vigorously". Then I clicked after "and" to add "vigorously" and it typed over the beginning of my next sentence. I am sure I just turned on or off some feature, but I do not know what feature this would be, or how to find the option to make it stop erasing my work. |
