Hi again,
looked closer into it.
Comments in the form file ARE removed on load and save, also when 
formatting on load and save is set to off.
(A disadvantage in my case).
I will help myself with setting an invisible unique object before and 
after the parts that has to be re freshened.
Thanks anyway.
