It does store relative paths in the .VCX file. When it shows the path to you, it resolves to the full path, but the relative path is what is stored.

Even if I enter Bmp\MyBitmap.bmp I find that it later changes the entry to "MyDrive:\MyFolder\Bmp\MyBitmap.Bmp". How can I ensure that only relative paths are used?
