Solution 1

You must assign a MsoShapeStyleIndex to the ShapeStyle.

To get a rectangle with No fill and black border Try this

C#

WordDoc.Shapes.AddShape(1, 30, 15, 565, 760).ShapeStyle = Microsoft.Office.Core.MsoShapeStyleIndex.msoLineStylePreset1;

The enum MsoShapeStyleIndex has many more options, try them to get your desired shape.
