Brian-
It depends on the order that you add the objects to the form page in the
constructor. I can't remember how the order goes, but I do know the bitmap
has to be above, in the tree list, any controls that you want to display on
top of the bitmap. You'll have to delete and reapply the controls and
bitmaps to get them in the correct order in the tree. Just play around with
the order of adding and you'll see what I mean.

That's what I thought would work, too, but the hierarchy list order can't be
changed, can it? It seems to be in Object ID order. Can I change the Object
ID's to change the order?
