Sometime, when I’m typing a post, suddenly I find myself in typeover mode and I can’t simply add a word without having to type the whole post over, or doing a sort of dance with the enter, write, backspace keys. I don’t know what I’m inadvertently doing to get into that mode, and I’d like to know how to get out. Thanks. xo, C.

Press the INSERT key on your keyboard once.
You may be hitting it inadvertently when you’re trying to hit the DELETE key; INSERT toggles the insert/typeover mode.
Astounding, but true! Thanks very much. I don’t have any clue how I could have reached that key inadvertently. It’s quite a distance from where my hands lie on this keyboard. I think there is probably some random combination of keys that I hit that also toggles that action. Anyway, knowledge is power. Thanks, again.

We’re all just a keystroke from disaster, we recogize that.
