Ed why does all the Tex go int one as you type one word to correct the grammar it removes part of next word is it any thing to do with using 125% Tex that helps me to see what I am doing fed up Tez

Hi tezestwing, I think you may have hit the INSERT key on your keyboard by mistake. If you've still got the problem - or the next time it happens - try hitting it again and see if it doesn't help.

thanks swedeheart I am now hitting the insert key but nothing is happening I am also on 125% because I need bigger text and the words just come out all split up like now what does the insert key do anyway still fed up Tez

[tezestwing]

I really am fed up now as I was typing the post was all split up but when it has been submitted it comes out ok why Tez

Hi tezestwing, sorry that didn't solve anything... The insert key is for switching to overtype mode - the text-eating mode - and back again to how we would normally want it. It's also good for driving people crazy, when they press it accidentally, which I know from my own experience....

My suggestion is you post this whole page (your question and our dialogue) in Technology, where there are ABers who really do know their stuff and who will be able to guide you step by step. Just go to the Technology topic and say would they have a look at the question you posted here. Copy and paste this address (the URL for this page that the we are on right now) so they'll find your question easily:

Good luck!

Thanks swedeheart I got it sorted now, must have had an accident with the insert key, had a practice in Microsoft Word, like if you dont like what you have put down you place the cursor and delete as you type, saves highlight and delete I suppose,but I still have gaps between letters as I type in 125% but not in 100%and don't know how the post will turn out until it is submitted, aah gone back to 100%, now OK got two pairs of specks on though LOL Tez
