Horizontal square dotted line

I keep getting a horizontal dotted line, the dots are small squares. I cannot get rid of this line. Can someone give me any idea what to do?

    Please upload a screen shot, so that we can see what you see. 

     

    Word does make some automatic "corrections," replacing (among other things) asterisks with a paragraph border. I am not sure if that applies to Word Online, though.

      Thanks Stefan, as requested, screen shot of the horizontal dotted line that keeps appearing and I can't get rid of.

        Your screen shot definitely shows a paragraph border. 

         

        When you see it being inserted, are you typing for example three asterisks in the text?
