Sorry for this dumb post, but I’m not quite sure how to use the line tool. Unlike my previous Photoshops, the line tool on PS CS 8 that I just installed doesn’t actually draw a line, but a rectangle….I can’t find the place to change these settings. Thanks for the help.

With the Line tool selected, take a look at the Options bar and make sure that Shape Layers or Fill Pixels is selected, and check that you have selected a suitable weight, e.g. 1 pt.
