correct, it's hidden in the underlying object. Have you got the VCL
source? It's well worth it just to see how they do all this stuff. It
contains...
procedure DoShow;
if Assigned (FOnShow) then FOnShow (Self);
end;
FOnShow is the field corresponding to the OnShow event. Assigned is
simply a test for  nil.
