How do I keep "existing type" from being overwritten by my "current" typing
(i.e. happens when a document is open)
 
Click on the OVR (Overtype) button on the bottom status Bar (REC TRK EXT
OVR) or from the Tools menu, select Options and go to the Edit tab and
uncheck the Overtype mode button (It does the same thing).
