We faced the same issue, and rather than have our users learn a forms editors, we decided to use Dave Baldwin's HTMLviewer (www.pbear.com) to display HTML forms. This allows our users to author their forms in HTML using any commercial HTML editor. Since their staffs usually have HTML expertise, this allows them to start creating forms with no learning curve, and also to use forms created for our Delphi program in other applications (and vice versa). Since HTMLviewer supports CSS, fine formatting control is available.
The only restrictions we found in HTMLviewer is that JavaScript is not supported (although it seems that we can get a third-party JavaScript interpreter and integrate it, but we're not at that point yet), and that Quantum Grid is not directly supported, but we were able to get QG in there using the <PANEL> tag included in HTMLviewer.
