repost - please help (size of activex controls not stored)

I'v created some activex components in CB5 (they derive from TCustomEdit
and TCustomComboBox etc) which work properly on MS Excel 97 forms except
that somehow the size properties of the controls don't seem to get stored
in the Excel form (they're reset to the defaults Excel assigns (144x144)
them after closing and re-opening Excel; the other properties such as Left,
Top and some custom properties are stored properly). Does anyone have a
clue what's wrong?

I'm not quite sure, but I'm counting on a bug in C++ Builder 5, because all
seems to work well in CB 4 and Delphi 5.
