What I would add to Craig's reply is that line drawing is so easy and 
flexible there isn't any reason to have the text frames do this for 
you.  My suggestion would be not to spend much time trying to carefully 
use the mouse to create the line, when you can use Properties to make 
sure it's vertical/horizontal (rotation), and change thickness, length 
and position.  You also can choose whether to have text flow around the 
line, or not.  And if you are going to repeat the same line, use 
Duplicate/Multiple Duplicate.
