Thanks Tim,
I had another post from EE, which turned out pretty easy. thought i'd post
it as well.

Add a Label.
Set the AutoSize to False.
Set its BorderStyle to FixedSingle.
Adjust to your liking.
Set the Height to 1 in the Size property "180, 1".

Sounds like you've tried creating a line using other controls with a 3D
border - which is one option.

However, if that's not turning out as you'd expect, another option is to
override the OnPaint method of the Form and use the ControlPaint class to
draw a border-style line
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.forms.controlpaint_
members.aspx).

A third option is to go through this
(http://www.codeproject.com/cs/miscctrl/hvrules1.asp) article and see if you
can use the controls that are developed.
