Docking Misery !! Please Help !!

Hey & thanks in advance for anyone who replies.

I have 2 forms, a 'main' and a 'support'. They function completely
seperately. What I'm looking to do is add a feature so that the user
can dock the 'support' form within the 'main' form.

Currently, I've been able to make this happen when docking to a
coolbar, but when I put a panel on 'main' and align it to alBottom,
make it Autosize := True, and make 'support' dkDock & dmAutomatic -->
When I dock the form the panel on 'main' gets the appropriate size, but
it's just a huge blank panel...you can't see the 'support' form, but if
I click on the bar on the left of the panel, I can drag 'support' back
out of there. I've messed a lot with the visible property on both the
panel and on the form, and it doesn't seem to do anything.

Why not just use the coolbar then? Well on the support form I use a
treeview, and a listview component in conjunction with one another, and
when I have the form docked, I get memory access violations everywhere
when I try to use the support form docked. When it's undocked, it
functions perfectly.

If anybody has any ideas here please help. Thanks, again, in advance
for any replies, or at least for reading.
