no. default typing mode does not erase the words as you type, but overtype mode does.
helps you to know when you are over typing a word
The only difference between Insert Mode and Overtype Mode is that characters are placed in front of the text after the cursor in Insert Mode, where as existing characters are overwritten in Overtype Mode.
Status Bar
overtype
Insert Key!! =)
When you are typing it will insert text by pushing any existing text over rather than replacing them which happens in overtype mode. You can turn Insert mode on by pressing the Insert key, and by pressing it again it will turn it off.
Press the 'Ins' key. Normally your keyboard is set in insert mode. Pressing Ins will change it to over-type and vice-versa. You can also look on the status bar and click on "OVR" to turn overtype on or off.
false - the correct answer is insert mode. I know this because the previous answer cost me a point on my exam.
Press the Insert key. If you see Ovr on the status bar, you are in Overtype mode, which means what you type will replace existing text. If that does not work, right click on the status bar and choose Overtype. This will add an extra button onto the status bar which you can click on to swith between Insert and Overtype mode.
In overtype mode, the character underneath the cursor is deleted and a new character inserted when a letter key is pressed. In Insertmode, the new character is inserted and the rest of the characters in the word shift up to make room.
