Jud McCranie mentioned this to Gary Weinfurther:
 JM>>> First method I enter the name of my subroutine in the OI
 JM>>> ShowForm event field.
 JM>>> Second method double click on the OI ShowForm field and it will
 JM>>> create the shell of a subroutine TForm1.ShowForm, and you can
 JM>>> enter the call to your subroutine there.
 GW>> These do the same thing.  The second method merely allows you to name
 GW>> the event handler yourself instead of using the default name.
 JM> They accomplish the same thing in the final result, but they do
 JM> not do the same thing.  The 2nd one makes a small subroutine in
 JM> the soure file and puts an explicit call to your subroutine in
 JM> that subroutine.  The first method doesn't do that.
Oh, I see.  You're typing the name of an *existing* routine into the OI.  
Have you tried typing the name of a non-existant routine?
