Forms in the language editor - help

I have a BCB 6 project that I am internationalizing - or trying to.  I
am having problems getting the language module project to include forms
correctly and to allow me to edit the forms that are in it in the form
designer:

My project, called GPGee, has several forms.  When I add a language to
it, the language subproject ends up looking like this in the project
manager:

--GPGee.DEU
 |--GPGee.cpp
 |--Form
   |-GPGeeConfigure.dfm
   |-formGPGeeConfigure

No matter how many forms are in the host project, the language module
subproject only has one of them listed in the project manager.  All of
the .dfm files for the project are copied into the /DEU directory.
There doesn't seem to be a way to add those .dfm files to the language
module project.

Secondly, with the form that IS in the project, I can't see how to edit
it in the form designer.  Double clicking on "Form",
"GPGeeConfigure.dfm", or "formGPGeeConfigure" all bring up the .dfm file
as text in source code text editor.  The context-menu entry to "View As
Form" is greyed out in the text editor.  I can't for the life me figure
out how to get the form designer to work.  The settings for the language
tool has a tab for "Form Designer", so I assume there is a way.

Help?
