Why doesn't text selection and typing replace text anymore?

A

It used to be that in any Office program, when I would select a section of
text and type new text, the new text replaced the old text. Now, I must have
it in "OVR" mode to do that so I constantly have to switch between typing
over text and inserting text. Did my programs get screwed up some how? Is
this a new microsoft update that I just don't like?
