Answer 1

You need to destroy window items, before you destroy the window itself.

Altenratively, don't use global id;s for components that will be recreated several times. Consider using Ext.id() function to generate unique ids with given prefix.

items:[ new combobox({id:Ext.id()})]

Answer 2

If the form/combo isn't being modified each time you open the window, just add closeAction: 'hide' to your Window configuration. Then, the window will not be destroyed when you close it and you can call Window.show() to make it appear again.

Answer 3

Are you getting any error in the second time? Did you check that in Firebug? Can you provide some more code of your example?
