StringWriter object and dispose method

Re hello,

I m' sorry for my questions ..
Under framework 1.1 with vb.net, i m using a StringWriter object to export
in .xls file.
To empty memory, I would like to use the propterty dispose on the object
StringWriter.
But i have received an error like this :

example :

Dim myStringWriter As System.IO.StringWriter = New System.IO.StringWriter
...
myStringWriter.Dispose(System.Boolean)(true)
myStringWriter=Nothing

As Boolean)' is not accessible in that context. it is protected..

I can use the Close() method but i m not sure that this last one have the
same effects for Garbage Collector ?
Is it possible to use Dispose method with StringWriter object

Thanks for you help
fabriceUse Close(). Setting the objec to null stops the object from being
referenced, so the GC will clear it out when it's ready. Note that Dispose
DOES not remove the object from memory.

remember that you also don't need <myObject= Nothing explicitly in order
for the GC to clean the object up, although it is (IMO) good coding
practice.
