Does anyone know??????

I will try to explain this the best I can please bear with me. SOMETIMES when I type (in an Email Letter) for instance, if I make a mistake and catch it before I finish the email, (and I go back into the paragraph) and backspace to correct the miss-spelling, I have to rewrite the whole thing from the beginning of the word forward untill I get to where I can continue with the email. This also happens in Word Pad too. This only happens sometimes, and it is a hassle to have to rewrite the whole thing over. Say I have a Sentance in the first part of the Paragraph, and I go back to that Sentance to correct a misspelling, and if the Paragraph is, lets say, ten (10) Sentances long, I have to retype the whole ten (10) Sentances. I hope I am making sense. Thanks for any help.

    Seems you have a problem with the text editor settings. Ask an expert to change those settins, or just use Notepad and then open the .txt file with whatever program you like.

    This has happened to me too. Somehow the overwrite gets turns on, I don't know how but if you hit 'insert' it will turn it back off again and it will type normally.

    Don't use backspace - use the back arrow key.
