Use your own instance variable
var
MyInstanceVariable :TForm1;
begin
MyInstanceVariable := TForm1.Create(application);
try
Do some stuff
finally
MyInstanceVariable.Release;
end;
end;
This way you can have several of the same form at once if you so desire...
Try to avoid referring to Global instancevariables as created by delphi automatically
as this nails your code down to a single-use model and restricts future development.
