Border vs. Rectangle

[dodge55]

I'm creating a Schedule app. within a grid. Should I use a Border or Rectangle to make the Schedule?

Currently, I'm using a Border with 'tick marks' on the 15, 30, 45 mins of each hour of the day. The problem I'm having is placing the border at a specific location within the grid. Can someone tell me what the syntax of the HorizontalAlignment parameter is. I can't get the syntax correct.

Also, would a rectangle be better? It seems to have the same problem with HorizontalAlignment in that I can't get the syntax correct to place it at a particular location within the grid.

Well, I figured out the Horizontal and Vertical Alignment problem, but still haven't figured out whether Border or Rectangle is the best approach. Both seem to work the same.

However, it looks like I have to create 7 rectangle objects (one for each day of the week schedule). If I have 96 'tick' Lines on each rectangle for 15 minute interval dividers, do I have to create 96 * 7 Line objects to display? Seems like there should be a better way.

What's the problem with creating 96*7 lines? you don't have to draw them manually... all you gotta do is to draw one rectangle inside two for loops.

for(int i=0;i<7;i++)
{
    for(int j=0;j<96;j++)
    {
        //Draw a rectangle, starting at point (i*DAY_WIDTH, j*15)
    }
}
