Actually I found a solution. You can use the num pad 0 for insert in
the same way you would utilize it in Windows. I tested it and it works
fine.

It is confusing because of the new aluminum wired and wireless
keyboard. If you have a function key, you don't have a full-size
keyboard in the same sense as the previous generation keyboards; you
have one of the new keyboards which are not actually full-size in
the strict sense. I believe the fn key on your keyboard is where the
help key used to be, but unfortunately it does not work as insert. I
googled this and the only viable solution I found was to get a
program called sharpkeys which will enable you to remap an unused
key for the windows xp "insert" function. I seem to remember some
discussion of sharpkeys either on this list or voiceover but you
will have to google it to find the program; I believe it's free.
Don't know about its accessibility.
Hth.
