Why use that syntax at all anyway. Especially if you want to access the
created form via a variable later.
It is not the way to do it. You don't have a form1 to reference, that's
why you get access violations.
Go to Torry's or DSP and get a trayicon component and look at the source.
Alternatively there is the source for the socket server (D5+ I think) that
comes with delphi that also includes a technique for minimizing to the
tray.
