If Stefan's suggestion doesn't fix it - and even if it does the fix may only
be temporary as Word has a bad habit of changing personal settings in tools
options - then add the following line
Options.Overtype = False
to both an autonew and an autoopen macro in normal.dot - see
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm
If you are having programs with *Windows* changing the keyboard settings on
boot-up, it is possible to remap the keys to the required settings, but
first see

I continually remove the check mark on the Edit tab on the Overtype
mode, but after booting up it becomes checked again.
I am using Word 2003. Does anyone know how to set the default mode
to "NOT" overtype?

Caps Lock, Scroll Lock and Num Lock are keyboard functions.
Insert, by default, is disabled in Word 2007. You can use the Insert
button on the status bar (Right click and add it if not present) or
you can turn it on From Word Options Advanced Use the Insert Key
to control overtype mode.
