How do I insert text without erasing text already in the document
Often I will type text in a Word document and decide to insert another
thought. When I try to insert that thought the software erases the text already in place rather than move the existing text to the right, allowing me to insert the additional text. In the past I know I had the ability to insert text without loosing the text already in place. What do I need to do in order to have this capability. |

Press the "insert" button on your keyboard. You'll see at the bottom of the
MS Word window, a button that says "OVR" will grey out. That means overstrike. Press the insert key on your keyboard to toggle between overstrike and insert. -- Jim Hull Technical Writer "Mike" wrote: Often I will type text in a Word document and decide to insert another thought.
