Overtype in MS Word-Help

[Andrew07]

I didn't even think this could happen on a Mac...I'm typing up a term paper in Microsoft Word on my Mac and it's overtyping- as I type letters, it deletes the following letter. ON a PC I used the 'Insert' key to get rid of this...but a mac keyboard doesn't have an insert key

At the bottom of the Word screen, see the different green lights? Click the INS one off. (At least, thats how it worked in v.X)
