how do i get rid of a black line which appears when I start typin.

[Loz for Lynn]

On a couple of occasions now (on different pcs) i have opened word and
started typing in a new document. From the first letter a black band appears
across the whole page and over the typing. Does anyone know how to get rid
of it please.
