space bar is deleting text

S

stupidspacebar

every time I hit the space bar to edit text it is
deleting. This is making editing impossible. Is there
some setting or something that I changed? I am using
word 2000.

If you are showing the status bar on the bottom, look for the letters "OVR."
This means "overwrite." You should be able to click or double-click this to
turn it off. If you can't search the Help files for "OVR." You'll probably
find an answer.
