Hi,
1) is it possible to include a TForm object into a dll-file. I want to be
able to show this form after the user chose one of my menuitems?
is it enough to add a form to the project and then use
__createForm();
Form1->Show();    to create and show the form

and finally
delete Form1;        to free the memory again???

2) is there a tool that can show the current memory usage of my dll file?
(Like the taskmanager does it for normal exe file.)

thanks again
nik
