Is better method to borke programs in separate exe which can call each other ?
If so how can I transfer variables betwean exe files (not using some sort of temp temp files)

Show hide does not release memory..

You have to use CreateForm, and From1.Free for
propery memory management.

Of course, you would also add Action := caFree in the OnClose event of the dynamically created form, or call Form2.Release to destroy the form. :-)

Right!

Monster2, as long as you free the other forms before creating them again, you can create and destroy them as many times as your want.
