Hello Ron,
Welcome to our forums, and thank you for your post. I wish I had a "one size fits all" answer for this question. However, because of the flexible nature of PDF, there are a few possible solutions.
If the PDF contains fillable form fields, simply use the
Hand Tool to select a field, then delete the existing text and replace it with your own.
Should the document be a simple PDF file
representing a form, you will need to determine if the text in the form "fields" are comments, or base content. If you can select the elements with the
Hand tool, they are comments. When selected, simply use the Delete key to remove comments. See here for more details on editing comments:

If you can not select the text block to be modified using the hand tool, it is most likely base content. You can a) remove the text using the
Edit content tool as detailed here:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/knowle ... -documents
b) you can simply overwrite the area with a comment of your own using the
Typewriter or
Text Box tools with a white background. You will find both these tools in the
Comments tab of PDF-XChange Editor as of Version 7. You are using an older build, so these tools will be located in the main toolbar, or under
Tools> Comment and Markup Tools.
In the classic interface, select the tool, then change the fill color in the properties toolbar (Ctrl+E).
Otherwise, the document may be locked by a security policy that restricts changes. Please see here for more details:
