Default How to stop the spacebar deleting words when creating space?

I've been typing a document using MS Word 2003 and everytime I try to go back
up (whether a sentence or a paragraph up) into my document to fix some other
typing errors I've made especially typing a missing word into some sentence;
the next word/s get deleted/erased everytime I use a spacebar to create space
forcing me to retype the rest of the document all over again. What's the
problem here? And how do you solve this?
