| Over write highlighted text I can't over write a section of text I've highlighted and want to change. I know about the over write function, but I dont like to use it. I used to be able to highlight text and write over it but now it wont let me unless I delete it first - not even backspace works - anyone have any suggestions on how i might fix this?      |
