There is no shape in WinForms (although there is in WPF). So in WinForms, you may have to create it yourself. Something like this would do:

public class Shape : Control
{
    public override void OnPaint(PaintEventArgs e)
    {
        e.Graphics.DrawRectangle(this.ClientSize);
    }
}

The code may not be exactly right as I am just typing it in by heart, but you get the idea...
