Hi, thanks, I now have two working solutions and a lot more knowledge, although why Delphi was written this way I don't understand.
Solution 1 (Mike) in FormCreate: ACheck[i] := TCheckBox.Create(P); in FormClose: ACheck[i].Free; in FormDestroy: P := nil; Solution 2 (Bob) in FormCreate: ACheck[i] := TCheckBox.Create(nil); in FormClose: ACheck[i].Free; There was thought that if you do ACheck[i] := TCheckBox.Create(P); then P has the responsibility to Free and gets messed if it can't because it was already freed. I tried creating with owner P and not freeing, hoping that P might Free for me. This does not work. Is there a downside to having unowned components on a form?
