I create the events in the lowest common class so they don't need to be derixed again. However, I call the SetCallBack in the tcustomwhatever usually because that class will be used to derive new components and each individual component needs to determine which events are right for it.
In Forms case, the calls should be in TCustomForm, and so on...
