To add to the other messages: the behavior of the object created may depend on the way it was created. Usually these differences are not documented.

Maybe the most important difference I know (and very useful too) is that a timer added with AddObject to a toolbar will never fire, but a timer created with CreateObject() (and bound to a property of a toolbar) works just fine.
