Remarks
Call <xref:Namespace.Class.Dispose%2A> when you are finished using the Module. The <xref:Namespace.Class.Dispose%2A> method leaves the Module in an unusable state. After calling <xref:Namespace.Class.Dispose%2A>, you must release all references to the Module so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the Module was occupying. For more information, see Cleaning Up Unmanaged Resources and Implementing a Dispose Method.
Note
Always call <xref:Namespace.Class.Dispose%2A> before you release your last reference to the Module. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the Module object's Finalize method.
