Just tried to create a New Active Form application (OCX), but the option is
not there any more. It still appears in the "Customize New Menu", but
does not show up in any of the "File"->"New.." menus, nor the Tool Pallet.

Is there a differnt way to do this now?

You need to create an ActiveX library project first, then the Active
Form will be available under File->New->Other, then ActiveX. Looks
like you can also use customize to tailor the File->New menu to your
liking.

With the same point in mind (creating a new ActiveForm) - is the "customize"
dialog in the File-New menu broken? I somehow got ActiveForm to show up on
the new menu after extensive thrashing about with it, but only at the top
level; I can't seem to get anything into the submenus at all...

Strange: the icons that appear in the "File - New - Other" dialog seem to
depend on what, if anything, is open in Delphi 2007. If nothing is open,
there's no "ActiveForm" under "ActiveX". If I have an OCX project open,
there is.

To answer your question, Bob M, if you open a New ActiveX Library, you can
then open a new ActiveForm. Perhaps there is some logic to this after all.
