I used to be able to highlight an error and then overtype it, leaving just the amendment. Now I have to actually delete it first otherwise it remains. What have I done?

Thanks in anticipation.

The only thing I can think of is in Tools/Options/ edit tab make sure that typing replaces selection is checked.

Surely THIS (link) is an answer; even better than previous maybe (?) in that you don't even have to highlight.
