I am working a project to build a tree structure in SE draft environment using VBA in excel.  I know how to add the text but I need to place a border (box, rectangle, square shape) around the text. I have looked at the VBA object browser but not sure if I am using the class methods correctly - unable to add borders.

Thanks for any help

If you place the text as a TextBox, you can use:
Dim objTxts As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.TextBoxes
Dim objtxt As SolidEdgeFrameworkSupport.TextBox
...
Set objtxt = objTxts.Add(0, 0, 0)
objtxt.Text = "Your text"
objtxt.BorderType = igTextBorderRectangle
objtxt.BorderOffset = 0.001
