re: Comment about 'Disable the Insert key in Word (disable INS & OVR mode)' Saturday, February 9, 2008 at 7:22 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Keith S. Angus (4 messages posted) I've disabled the Insert key in Word, but you still have the little OVR box at the bottom of the window. If you double click it Overtype is toggled on or off, so you can still use it if you really want to (I think I never will!)
