	Dispatch	Calls message-handling methods for the object, based on the contents of the Message parameter.
	FieldAddress	Returns the address of a published object field.
	Free	Destroys an object and frees its associated memory, if necessary.
	FreeInstance	Deallocates memory allocated by a previous call to the System::TObject::NewInstance method.
	GetInterface	Retrieves a specified interface.
	GetInterfaceEntry	Returns the entry for a specific interface implemented in a class.

	GetNamePath	Returns the name of the object as it appears in the Object Inspector.
	HandleAllocated	Indicates whether the TMetafile object has acquired a handle to the underlying GDI object.
	InheritsFrom	Determines the relationship of two object types.
	InitInstance	Initializes a newly allocated object instance to all zeros and initializes the instance's virtual method table pointer.
	InstanceSize	Returns the size in bytes of each instance of the object type.
	LoadFromClipboardFormat	Loads a metafile from the Clipboard.
	LoadFromFile	Loads a graphic image stored in a file.
	LoadFromStream	Loads the metafile from a stream.
	MethodAddress	This is MethodAddress, a member of class TObject.
	MethodName	This is MethodName, a member of class TObject.
	NewInstance	Allocates memory for an instance of an object type and returns a pointer to that new instance.
	QueryInterface	Returns a reference to a specified interface if the object supports that interface.
	QueryInterface	Returns a reference to a specified interface if the object supports that interface.
	ReleaseHandle	Releases the Windows GDI object represented by the metafile.
