Closes the connection to the database.

[Visual Basic]
Sub Close()
[C#]
void Close();
[C++]
void Close();
[JScript]
function Close();

Remarks

The Close method rolls back any pending transactions. It then releases the connection to the connection pool, or closes the connection if connection pooling is disabled.

An application can call Close more than one time without generating an exception.
