Hi! I'm really curious about Lazarus and I'm trying to write some
simple application with it. I have a little question: how may I create
new Form on-the-fly?
Thank you
Bye

Do you mean creating a new form in the designer, or creating a new
instance of a form runtime ?

MyForm := TMyForm.Create(Application);

This should create a new form. Make sure that MyForm doesn't point to
anything (the form isn't created elsewhere, like the main program
unit) and also free the form after it's used.

Thank you sekel! I mean this...
A question: How Lazarus' classes are similar to Delphi's ones? Or
better, may I use a Delphi's manual for Lazarus?

Yes. You can use a Delphi manual. There maybe some small differences,
but not real big ones.
