You can avoid the problem using the "trick" used by Delphi to read/write non published properties into dfm. The situation is that you can have AuthType or AuthTypes property written in the dfm but not both. So if the read of AuthType is triggered then you set the AutTypes property accordingly. I never used this technik but I saw it in action and it is very useful to "keep" compability with old application, in particular when the form will not recompiled. If you want I can write some code as sample how it should work. It is a think that I should do soon or later.
