Default I have lost ability to delete selection in Word

I'm hitting some unknown combo that's taken away the function to delete a
highlighted word, etc. Got it back once by accident, then lost it again. What
typo am I committing?

Did you follow the instructions in the 2004 thread that you reopened
without asking a question? That should be all you need.

In Word 2003 or earlier, click on Tools | Options | Edit tab | check the
"Typing replaces selection" box | OK.

In Word 2007, click on Office Button | Word Options | Advanced | in the
"Editing options" group, check the "Typing replaces selected text" box | OK.
