Hi
 As far I can remeber, Clear does nothing if the TStringList is empty, but 
if you are using TStrings, it might give an exception since that method 
might be abstract. You could also make sure the object is created at the 
time you wish to clear it, cause if it's not, you will also have an 
exception. I use TStringList quite often and it never gave me any problems 
trying to clear an empty list.
 Regards

Jaco
