    Is there a way to insert a character in a line when editing?
    I forget my dos?????
    If I want to change an element in a line I seem to have to rewrite the whole line!
    Cheers

    Hi GPJMA, to edit a line: move the cursor to where you want to make the change and press the Insert key to enter insert mode. You can now add characters. Note that when you use the arrow keys you will go back to overwrite mode so after moving the cursor you'll have to press Insert again.
    If you're editing a program line, don't forget to press Enter on that line when you're done to make sure your changes are recorded in the program.

    Hope this helps,
    Rob
