Unknown red bar in document

[delphi15]

Often when I open a document created in Microsoft Word (docx or doc), in TextMaker 2018 a red bar will appear at random locations, see attached. This does happen to me with TextMaker 2016.

What is this? What is the word-around?

Thank you,

That's the overflow bar. You have too much text in the cell (the cell probably doesn't resize vertically because the row has fixed height).

You can hide the overflow bar in File | Options, but it's recommended to fix the situation instead.
