Hey D,
Before CPP police show up, thought I would throw this in.
FormCreate() is only there because Pascal (i.e Delphi) needs it, not 
C++. You should all of your construction stuff in the form constructor. 
I have seen numerous references in these groups and elsewhere that 
FromCreate() "could" be fired prior to the Constructor being called. 
Although as near as I can tell it has something to do with the Phase of 
the Moon and the amount of rainfall in Africa that effects when this 
happens. ;)

This of course may or may not have anything to with your problem, but....
