Why can't I write over text that is selected?

When I highlight text I cannot type over what is highlighted. Instead the new
text I have typed is inserted before the highlighted text. Also when I
highlight text and press backspace the text is not deleted. However pressing
Delete will delete the text. Any suggestions for a fix?
 
In Word, click on Tools | Options | Edit | check the "Typing
replaces selection" box | OK.
 
Tools > options > edit - check typing replaces selection.
