Is it possible to create an empty form that attaches to an existing window
handle? I have a .NET class library method that requires a form ref as a
parameter, but all I have is a window handle. I'm hoping to do this the easy
way.

I second this question.
I also have a scenario where I have an existing window handle and would like
to add my .NET content to it.
My scenario is slightly different in that the existing window is a custom
window in another application that accepts MFC Native Window content. But an
answer here might be helpful to me as well.
