MDIform background picture substitution

Ben
after I migrated to dotNet, code wizard never bothered upgraded my MDIform
background embedded pictures b/c MS is no longer providing us with that
feature. Is there an alternative solution that would let me embed my
background bitmap/jpeg picture into my MDI form? And to make it autosketch
as well? thanks.

i try a cuple of things but the best solution is to leave the image to the
fate of the program, and monitor resolution!!!

the one that i like, it was to put a panel in the back, and to the
background of the panel put the image, it rendes automatically, but, the
forms child open behind the panel, and you never see it...
