That link is about Page Borders/Border Art, what I'm trying to do is put straight line borders around a piece of text.

@haydnwalker: The second method is where I got stuck, Office 2010 allows you to draw a rectangle but it's not transparent so the text is hidden when the rectangle is moved over it, this would be great if not for the non-transparent problem.

Drawing lines didn't seem straight forward, at least not in Word 2010, looked at the help and started going into New Drawing Canvas and Connectors, too many steps to keep it simple!
