Ah. True, you can do this, and if you really need the control, it's
probably doable, though don't ask me how you get DFMs to load that way.

If you're not gong the TForm/VCL route, but MFC, WTL or raw Win32, then
there are ways. But for now, I'm assuming the OP is using Borland's own
way to do it, as otherwise he'd be explicitly finding the resource DLL
in the first place, and the question would be trivial.
