          up position and down position.

Additional: You can also load a 3rd bitmap and use it as an alternate
            shape to the up position.

Distribution: You may distribute this ZIP file freely provided the
              contents remain unchanged.

              You may use this software in a commercial product free of
              charge. If you do use it in a commercial package, for my
              own interests sake, please let me know.
              
              You are not permitted to sell the software unless compiled into
              your application. ie. Don't sell this ZIP file or its contents,
              or any associated file.

              Please call if you wish to have changes implemented.

Key Properties: 
            AutoSize    true
            BitmapAlt   Tbitmap
            BitmapDown  Tbitmap
            BitmapUp    Tbitmap
            Cursor      crDefault
            DisplayAlt  false
            Height      
            Hint        
            Left
            Name
            ParentShowHint
            ShowHint
            Tag
            Top
            Visible     true
            Width       

Events:     onClick
            onMouseDown
            onMouseMove
            onMouseUp
            

Notes:      The autosize property derives the height and width of the bitmap
            from only the BitmapUp property. This means that you will not
            see the correct size of the bitmap until you load BitmapUp.

            If this is a pain for people I'll change it!
