Replacing Out the DataTree dialog in the Designer

edited July 2008 in End User
What do I need to do to replace the DataTree dialog in the ppDesigner with a
form that I have designed to perform the same purpose?

I have Display Titles and Display Widths that are not currently on the
TppField that I wish to use when creating the Label and DbText components on
the report.

Currently I have everything working, just need to know how I could replace
the DataTree with my form.

Or possibly just docking properly in the ppDesigner form.

Thank you ahead of time.

    The RB 10 Designer architecture is much more open to cusomization than the
    old architecture. You can register/unregister toolbars and toolwindows quite
    easily.

    Here is an example I created that shows how to add a custom tool window.
