Example

This example adds a blue dashed line to the active publication.

  With ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes _
        .AddLine(BeginX:=10, BeginY:=10, _
        EndX:=250, EndY:=250).Line
    .DashStyle = msoLineDashDotDot
    .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(50, 0, 128)
End With

This example adds a cross to the first page and then sets its border to be 8 points thick and red.

  With ActiveDocument.Pages(1).Shapes _
        .AddShape(Type:=msoShapeCross, _
        Left:=10, Top:=10, Width:=50, Height:=70).Line
    .Weight = 8
    .ForeColor.RGB = RGB(255, 0, 0)
End With
