Block text cursor - how? (confusing)

Right...

When you have clicked on a text place, or replying to this post as such, you'll notice a vertical thin line in front of each character typed.

There is a way I believe to transfer this into an actual black rectangular block of where the character will go. Its not a mouse cursor but a text cursor, and I was wondering how you change it.

Thank you

Insert button?

Insert is the overwrite function in Microsoft Word. So no. :P

I'm taking about an actual blinking black rectangle of where the next character is going to be entered. I know it can be done but how!
