What is Overstrike mode and how do you change from it to Insert mode?

What are the available text attributes in Word?

Overstrike mode is a text editing mode where characters you type replace the characters already present to the right of the cursor. In contrast, Insert mode is a text editing mode where characters you type are inserted at the cursor position, pushing the existing text to the right.

To switch from Overstrike mode to Insert mode depends on the text editing software or environment you are using. Here are a few common methods:

1. Microsoft Word: You can check the status bar at the bottom of the Word window. If it says "OVR" (short for Overstrike), double-click on it to switch to Insert mode.

2. Text Editors: In many text editors, you can press the "Insert" key on your keyboard to toggle between Overstrike and Insert modes. Some text editors might display a status indicator on the screen when you switch modes.

3. Online Editors: If you are using an online text editor or coding environment, it may have a specific toolbar or menu option labeled "Overstrike" or "Insert" that you can click on to toggle between the two modes.

It's important to note that not all text editing software or environments have an Overstrike mode, as it has become less commonly used over time. However, most modern text editors default to Insert mode.
