Default Adding lines to a TextBox

Is there any way to add graphical lines to a TextBox? I want to be able to
place some dividing lines on my TextBox to improve it's visual layout.

Default Adding lines to a TextBox

Here is what I did in XL2003:
Drew a rectangle or a textbox
Drew two horizontal lines across the box
Clicked on of the lines, holding down CTRL, clicked the other line and then
the rectangle (or textbox)
Still holding CTRL, right clicked with in the drawing and use Grouping/group
The lines do not show while you are typing
Alternative method: Draw three textboxes one on top the other and then group
them
best wishes
