<span class="function"><strong>mssql_free_statement()</strong></span> only needs to be called
if you are worried about using too much memory while your script
is running. All statement memory will automatically be freed when
the script ends. You may call <span class="function"><strong>mssql_free_statement()</strong></span>
with the statement identifier as an argument and the associated
statement memory will be freed.
