Hey Gamer boots it does, but lets say in the game you need to clear up the memory you can use

Actually, that command doesn't do anything. Even if it did what it describes in the help files, it still doesn't do what you appear to believe it does.

DBPro returns ALL resources on exit.
The only exception to that are any files you create on your hard drive.
