There are various issues with DLLs and MDI - they are not IBO
specific. I suggest that you search the Borland website for articles
on this topic (I know there are a few but its been a while since I
read them).

As someone already suggested, packages will resolve some of the issues
but not all.

I built my own MDI interface and avoided the Windows API
implementation of MDI. It allowed me to avoid some of the background
issues and gave me greater flexibility in how I setup the interface.
But I will warn you now that it takes a lot of work, my interface is
still not perfect.
