works perfectly.
Thanks again,

I used to be able to use the arrow keys to move around with out any
problems, but know when I move (with the arrow keys after pressing "i") to
the beginning of the line I have to press I again.  How do I change it so
that I don't always have to press "i"?  I hope that wasn't too confusing.
     

Easiest way: install vim and use it instead of the "real" vi.

I suggest u use h j k l instead of arrow keys, that will be more 
covenient if u get used to that!!
For the most time u can use vim, but sometimes when u just installed the 
system or in workstations where vim is not installed and u don't have 
the root privilege,
u have to use vi, and the most part of vim is compatible with vim.
