You have me confused.  What's the difference?
 JM> So, for that reason, from now

That's true for auto-created forms.  I do not recommend auto-created forms, 
since they take up memory and resources even when they are not needed, and 
they considerably slow down the program's startup.  If you create the forms 
yourself, then you have to also show them yourself.
