Hi,

Is there any difference between "release thisForm" and "thisForm.release()"?

Remember that 'ThisForm' is just a reference to the form like any other (except it's created automatically). A slightly different example might make it clearer:

DO FORM myForm NAME x

Then 'x.Release' runs the forms release method, 'RELE x' just releases the object reference. What then happens in either case will, as usual, depend on what other references,if any, are held to the form.
