This method
//---------
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
   bmp: TBitmap;
begin
   form2.Show;
   bmp:=form2.GetFormImage;
   try
     Image1.Canvas.StretchDraw(Image1.ClientRect, bmp);
   finally
     bmp.Free;
   end;
end;
//---------
shows a DBGrid (and everything else I dropped on form2) nicely on my 
Win7 32bit setup.
Perhaps you need to share the code that drops parts of the bitmap (and 
perhaps the lfm of the imaged form as well).
