INF: SqlCursorClose Documentation Incorrect

Last reviewed: April 28, 1997
Article ID: Q88692

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server Programmer's Toolkit, version 4.2

SUMMARY

If you use the SqlCursorClose function on a SQLCONN% connection, the Visual Basic application (SQL Server client application) may do one of the following: stop working altogether, cause a general protection fault (GP fault), or behave abnormally.

MORE INFORMATION

The SqlCursorClose documentation on page 129 of the "Programmer's Reference for Visual Basic" incorrectly states:

   Closing a SQLCONN% connection with SqlCursorClose automatically
   closes all the cursors associated with it.

Do not use SqlCursorClose on a SQLCONN% connection. The SqlClose documentation should state:

   Closing a SQLCONN% connection with SqlClose automatically closes
   all the cursors associated with it.
