Inserting vs Overwriting Text

[c206h]

Sometimes, when I attempt to insert text into an email (Outlook Express 6.0), it overwrites the current text instead of inserting new text between the current text displayed. I know I must be making some accidental move or something. How do I make it quit overwriting and insert text?

By defualt, Windows programs "insert." Hitting the Insert key on your keyboard reverses this and makes it replace.

Steve R Jones: I, too, have wondered how to correct this!
Thanks for the insight!

Thanks, Steve. I believe I must accidentally hit the "insert" key when I am hitting the "backspace" key to delete a word before I make the insertion.
Thanks again,
John
