How do I set the line width (thickness) for a vertical or horizontal line?

I did as suggested, but the thickest line in the style selection was still
quite thin. How can I get a thicker line?

Try ..
Draw a rectangle (autoshape) around the range of cells
(Hold down Alt key while drawing to fit exactly to the grid)
Right-click on the rectangle > Format Autoshape
In Colors and Lines tab:
---------------------------------
Under Fill Color: choose "No Fill"
Under Line:
Enter a figure in Weight: 12 (say, that's quite thick <g>)
(play around with this figure)
Click OK

Instead of a rectangle, the line "thickness" flexibility
is also available (via same steps) when you draw a line to fit
