Q: 

Determining site/container of .NET extender provider

I created a .NET class derived from Component and implementing IExtenderProvider. I placed this provider on a Form. However, neither the site or the container is ever initialized. They are always null, whether in design mode or at runtime.

Is there a way to determine the Form that contains the provider object? This seems so obvious, yet so elusive.
