Create a table to store the legend captions in and also have a field to store the RGB color value to use for that caption. Then have your second form scan that table and add a container object for each legend needed. Set the container backcolor property to that value in the table, then add a label to the right of that container object and set its caption to the value in the table. Make sure the form is not modal. You can also remove the closable and min/max buttons so you can control when to release the form. Leave the title bar so the user can move it where it is less obtrusive.
As for setting the height of the form, you can also do that once you determine how many containers have to be added.
