Fredledingue Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I'm typing in the middle of a text, everything is normal, the old text is pushed forward. Then suddenly, I think because I hit a special key on the keyboard, the old text is not pushed anymore but erased as I type. new letters replacing old ones.I never found which key to press to reverse that. It happens everywhere it seems. can be on this message board box for example or in notepad etc.Please help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eidenk Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 It's the "Insert" key. It toggles that behaviour on or off. Above the "Delete" key on my keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredledingue Posted December 23, 2005 Author Share Posted December 23, 2005 Thanks! Is there a way to disable that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLXX Posted December 24, 2005 Share Posted December 24, 2005 Not without some extensive modification. It's an inherent characteristic of edit controls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
