subject: Insert Vs overtype mode

Is it possible to switch the PM to overtype mode versus insert mode?



We have some applications that default all currency fields to 0.00

and when you tab to that field you are in insert mode.  It is a pain

to delete the entry field before typing in the new value.  I have

noticed that the WinXX operating systems default to Overtype mode

and OS/2 defaults to insert mode.  Any utilities out there that can

change that?  If not, any ideas on how one could go about writing

one?



TIA,

-Todd
