Formatting the border of a range when automating excel

Hi Folks
hope someone can help me out with this wee problem. I'm automating
Excel from A2K and want to put a solid black border around a range of
cells.
I've tried using this:

ExcelSheet.Application.Worksheets("Sheet1").Range( "D9:D12").Borders.Color
= vbBlack

but it puts a border around each cell in the range, not just around
the range itself. Would much appreciate knowing the right way to do
this.

many thanks

Laurence
