Hi, I'm having a problem understanding VFI in Delphi2009. If I change my layout in the baseform, those changes are not propagated to the inherited form. For example, replacing a DBNavigator in the baseform with buttons has no effect on iherited forms. Is there any way to accomplish this? Or do I have to re-implement all my iherited forms?

+3  A: 

Make sure that you reopen the child forms in the ide after changing the base form. Otherwise they may not see the changes that you make

In your case, you should also check that you only have one copy of the base form. If you have a copy of the base form somewhere, your child forms might be looking at the wrong base.
