If I understand You correctly, that shouldn't be a problem, but
please explain what kind of object, what kind of items.

You can create VCL components by using the keyword new, but
if You want them to be visible You have to provide a Parent.


void __fastcall TYourClass::ButtonClick(TObject *Sender)
{
}
//-----------------------------------------------------


TButton *Button = new TButton(NULL); //You must delete
or
TButton *Button = new TButton(Form1); // deleted automaticly
Button->SetBounds(10,10, 150, 23);
Button->Parent = Panel2;
Button->OnClick = ButtonClick;

If You provide the owner the component is deletet by the owner
but if You don't need it anymore You can still delete it You self
like You have to if You dont provide the owner.

P.s. questions like this are better asked in: 
borland.public.cppbuilder.vcl.components.using

Kind regards
