I have a group that has all the default properties set except I switched on
showBorder with a borderwidth of 2.  All looks as expected with a light
gray background and a visible border.  Now I set the background in the
Colors and Patterns tab of the inspector to a specific color and turned the
opaque property on.  The color changes as expected but the border
disappears.  I tried setting the color of the border but no difference.
  How do I get my border back?

The default setting is to use 3D, where the borders are determined by the topcolor and bottomcolor (labelled in the inspector as inset and outset bevels.) The regular bordercolor is only used if the 3D setting is turned off. So to get what you want, fiddle with the two bevels.

On the same card I have a rectangle whose background I wanted to be the
same color as the group.  I changed the Fill color of the rectangle to the
same setting as the group, but the color is a slightly different shade than
the group's background.

I've never seen that happen when the RGB values are the same. Maybe one object has a slight transparency set?
