In the PC the OVR in the Word used to stand for overwrite, maybe that would help in your searchs.
I really, really don't know why 'overtype', shomething that was useful when the UI for word processors was command-line based, survived the coming of the GUI… In the Mac, Apple decided not to keep the Ins key, and Word was created for the Mac first…
I remember reading Rick Shaut's blog about how this was something added under consumer demand somewhere around Word 6… but I cannot find the post.

All I can say is thankfully no Insert key does exist on the Mac... I can't count the number of times I have inadvertently activated this on my work PC (the key is extremely easy to accidentally press) and subsequently lost work before I've noticed.

Agreed. I can't remember the last time I intentionally wanted to turn on overwrite/insert mode.
i can't find that overtype button at the bottom of the window on word mac 2008. i think it may have been removed. furthermore, a search for 'overtype' in word's help files does not bring up anything but the option can be set under preferences -> edit -> overtype mode toggle.
i have no idea why this is not documented in the help files by careless Microsoft.

'The OVR button in the status bar works with Mac 2004. However, it was was removed in Word 2008. Another option for Word 2008 is to click Customize Toolbars and Menus on the View menu. Click the Commands tab and select Overtype from the All Commands category. Then you can either add the OVR command to a toolbar or create a keyboard shortcut.'

Thank you for the tip above here. I rarely use Overtype but occasionally it's invaluable for completing basically assembled forms in word where form authors have relied (a little annoyingly, albeit well intended) on the use of underscores to block out a fillable area.
Just as an fyi, for Microsoft Word 2011 on a Mac, to use Overtype you have the same two options you had on Office 2008.
Option #1: Set in preferences (less useful, bit fiddly, but quick for a one off)
Word > Preferences > Edit > Overtype (toggle box)
Option #2.: Add a Custom Menu command for 'Overtype'
View > Toolbars > Customize Toolbars & Menus > (Click 'Commands' tab) > (Click 'All Commands' filter) > Overtype (drag either to menu or toolbar)
I put under 'Edit' menu. If you really want the toolbar button, with Word 2011 and the new 'Ribbon', it seems to only let you drag the custom toolbar entry to the toolbar at very top of the Word window.
Hope this helps - I was surprised at how tricky this was to find, too!
Following our recent seminar on Metadata, several attendees asked about metadata removal in Word for the Mac 2011. Here’s how:
On the Word menu, click Preferences.

- In document properties, the properties Author, Manager, and Company on the Summary tab, and Last saved by on the Statistics tab.
- All names associated with comments or tracked changes are changed to “Author.”
- If you add or edit your name in a specific comment or elsewhere in your file, that information is not removed by this procedure. You must remove that information manually.
To specify the personal information that appears in Office documents, Office:Mac has this advice:

To help maintain the level of privacy that you want, you can edit or remove any of the author and contact information that is associated with Office documents. The author and contact information that you specify automatically appears in all your Office documents, including those that you share with other people, unless you remove your personal information from a document.
- On the Word menu, click Preferences.
- Under Personal Settings, click User Information .
- Make the changes that you want.
When you update the information in one Office application, the information is automatically updated for all Office applications.

A cautionary note: the metadata removal in Word for the Mac does not appear to be as thorough as Prepare > Inspect Document in the Windows version. Users would be best served by converting their documents to Acrobat and using Acrobat’s Examine or Sanitize Document features.
