Press the "insert" button on your keyboard just once when

At the bottom of the screen where it says 'page 1 sec 1' etc there is 'rec
trk ext ovr' If ovr is in bold it means it will eat your words when you type!! Press insert to change it! "do-dads" wrote: as i type, for revision purposes, the existing text is replaced as i type the desired text. how can i type so the text is simply pushed back instead of being erased?
