Little lines on the side of microsoft word document

pstein the vertical line at the left side?" />Windows 7 64bit the vertical line at the left side?" />Office 2007

I got a document where on a certain line there is a vertical line at the left side.

It is NOT the cursor.

As you can see from the attached snapshot it is an additional line.

The snapshot shows the cursor AND the line.

How can I get rid of the vertical line? I cannot just delete it by backspace or DELETE key
