Default the line is extending to the next cell

And that space will probably give you grief at some point.

Sorry..., my previous reply is not correct.
Paragraph 2 should read:
Format the alignment, of the cell you are typing in, as 'Wrap Text'

We..., two options I can think of right now:
1) To type a single space in the 'beside' cell so it will "look like empty".
2) Format the alignment, of the 'beside' cell, as 'Wrap Text'

Thanks. Is there any way to avoid that the contents of the cell will extend
to the one beside it, even if the 'beside' cell is empty?

First of all - D7 is not BELOW but beside.
Text will, usually, extend to the next cell ONLY if the next cell is empty.
