Gridlines on drawing board

Question

Dear all,
I am new to Java and trying to do my assignment. I need to create a drawing panel that can drag and drop images on it, and moving them around on the drawing panel.
I planned to use GridBagLayout to layout the images on the panel. I am lucky that I don't need to handle circle or ovals. :-)
However, I need to have gridlines on the panel. The gridlines should be lines in the background of the drawing.
I have absolutely no ideas on how to achieve this. Please help. All advise are appreciated!
Thank you.
Francis

Now tested :)import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class Gridder extends Applet{
   public void init(){}
   public void paint(Graphics g){
      int x = getWidth()/10;
      int y = getHeight()/10;
      int Xx=0, Yy=0;
         for(int i=0; i<=10; i++){
            g.drawLine(Xx,0,Xx,getHeight());
            g.drawLine(0,Yy,getWidth(),Yy);
            Xx +=x;
            Yy +=y;
}
