In a normal application a form can be hidden without destroying the form by calling the .Hide method. The same functionality can be implemented in IntraWeb by calling its simply calling the .Hide method. The .Hide method will hide the form without destroying it as .Release does. .Hide removes all references in the form list as .Release does but does not destroy the form. Because of this you must keep a reference to the form if you wish to redisplay it later, otherwise the form will become orphaned.
