Default Lock Cell Borders

Hi,

I have a worksheet with text in each cell with borders around them.

I copy and paste the cell back and forth depending on what im doing so i
dont have to write the same thing again and again.
But when i do this it also removes the borders around the cells. As i use
different borders depending where it is on the worksheet, it is time
consuming drawing all the borders again.

Is there anyway I could lock the cell border so i can still change the text
inside????
