    Hello all,

    I need to customize the form designer in delphi 4 so that it draws a bitmap
    on the form at design time as well as the grid. I can't seem to find the way
    to get the IDE to recognize the customized form (which works fine at run
    time). I've tried working with the package editor and such but haven't
    enough skill to succeed (i've been away in VS.net purgatory FAR too
    long...).

    any pointers to articles and/or code would be most appreciated. I tried
    Sergey Orlik's CFPack but it didn't seem to work and his web page isn't
    available any more.

    TIA,
