I had updates on my Microsoft account on April 15, 2015. Now, as I am creating a document for my U.S. Honors class project, if I need to go back and change my wording of a sentence it will let me delete and type but when I hit the space bar it deletes a space as I hit it. This is so inconvenient for me. I have not changed any settings except fonts and spacing, which I have always done when starting a document. I end up having to erase everything I had typed after the part that I wish to re-word. This results in me rewriting two or three paragraphs after I had already had wrote and then the words are not the same because I am over the epiphany of it and moved to another thought.
PLEASE, help me. I still have two more semesters after this one, and I cannot get as much done with my word doing this. I starting to panic because it is Final Exam time.

Try clicking on INSERT key and see if that helps.

You did probably hit the Insert key. An option has that toggle the function you are describing. See attached screenshot.

Save yourself a lot of grief (and time) during the next couple semesters and read through the following:

• Basic Concepts of Microsoft Word - from Shauna Kelly
• How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly
• Understanding Styles in Microsoft Word

Perhaps wait until after finals, but not too long after finals!
