Composing Problem...
I'm not sure how to explain this .. when trying to compose or reply e
mails.. if I use back space to change something, it makes the words & letters ahead of the blinking curser disappear.. so that I have to start the letter all over in order to correct anything .. anyone have any ideas or a fix please ? Thx, Katt

OK. But have you taped the Insert key and tested to see if the problem
persists? It toggles between a /normal/ mode and deleting characters in front of the ones you type in. -- Bruce Hagen MS-MVP Outlook Express Imperial Beach, CA "Katt" wrote in message ...

That's what the backspace key is supposed to do. It moves back a space
and deletes the character there. If you want to move the cursor without erasing things, you use the cursor keys. -- Mike - http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/techhelp.htm "Katt" wrote in message ...
