Sorry Richard, this is wrong. VCL forms DO NOT sit on top of WinForms what so ever. They are side by side implementations. They both access the Win32api the same way (via PInvoke) but VCL Forms certainly do not sit on top of WinForms.
VCL Forms is also a faster GUI because it doesn't really on GDI+ like WinForms does and GDI+ isn't hardware accelerated.

Otherwise VCL forms. Party line of course. VCL forms sit on top of WinForms, so you are getting extra stuff you may not need if you use VCL Forms. --- Richard Vowles Borland Solutions Architect phone: +64-9-9184573 mobile: +64-21-467747 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] im: msn: [EMAIL PROTECTED], skype: rvowles -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Rohit Gupta Sent: Friday, February 25, 2005 2:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi List Subject: [DUG] WinForms vs VclForms Which is better ?
