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.

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'
