SQLDISCONNECT( ) Function
Terminates a connection to a data source.
SQLDISCONNECT(nConnectionHandle)
Return Values
Numeric
Parameters
- nConnectionHandle
Specifies the connection handle to the data source returned by SQLCONNECT( ). Specify 0 for nConnectionHandle to terminate all active connections.
Remarks
SQLDISCONNECT( ) returns 1 if the connection is successfully terminated, – 1 if there is a connection level error, and – 2 if there is an environment level error.
SQLDISCONNECT( ) terminates a connection to a data source. You must supply the connection handle that SQLCONNECT( ) returned when you established the connection.
Note If you execute SQLDISCONNECT( ) within an asynchronous function sequence or during a transaction, SQLDISCONNECT( ) generates an error.
Example
The following example assumes an ODBC data source called MyFoxSQLNT is available. SQLCONNECT( ) is issued, and its return value is stored to a variable named gnConnHandle.
If you successfully connect to the data source, SQLCONNECT( ) returns a positive number, a dialog is displayed and SQLDISCONNECT( ) is used to disconnect from the data source.
If you cannot connect to the data source, SQLCONNECT( ) returns a negative number and a message is displayed.
STORE SQLCONNECT('MyFoxSQLNT', '<userid>', '<password>') TO gnConnHandle
IF gnConnHandle <= 0
= MESSAGEBOX('Cannot make connection', 16, 'SQL Connect Error')
ELSE
= MESSAGEBOX('Connection made', 48, 'SQL Connect Message)
= SQLDISCONNECT(gnConnHandle)
