closing recordset after closing connection

hi there....

my friend believes that no matter if you write this code::

cn.close
set cn = nothing

rs.close
set rs = nothing

but I believe that it's not logical....what do you mean?

Hi,
if recordset/Connection is open, it will get closed and destroyed, and if it is already closed, then it will just get destroyed.

so better to destroy the objects while closing...

no I mean the sequence order of closing them.....do you agree with it? First closing connection the closing recordset?

Using the Close method to close a Connection object also closes any active Recordset objects associated with the connection. A Command object associated with the Connection object you are closing will persist, but it will no longer be associated with a Connection object...
(ie.,) its ActiveConnection property will be set to Nothing....

So
cn.close
set cn = nothing
will close rs and no point in closing the RS.
