Insert instead of replace

[Roni Lenhardt]

I've just installed Word 2003 and I have a small problem.

When I select a sentence and start writing, as far as i know, the new words
i'm typing are supposed to replace the one i had selected, correct? this is
not happening, what happens is as if i hadn't selected anything. It inserts
the new words before the text I selected and doesn't erase it.

How can I fix it??

Thanks so far..
