Differences from ImageKit7/8/9/10 ActiveX

The type has changed in VCL. In ActiveX, it was a combination type. When more than one of the methods close, open, pause, start, or stop was executed, the State property value would be a logical sum.
The VCL constants have a "v". In ActiveX, the constants are: (ikClosed, ikOpen, ikRunning, ikPaused, ikStopped).
