TADOConnection.Close - connection still active on MS-SQL server

I have several Delphi programs (XE3), that use a TADOConnection to connect to a MS-SQL Server. I recently checked the connections in the "MS SQL Server Management Studio"'s process list.

• When the program starts, the connection is inactive, no connection in the server's process list.
• When I open the connection it's shown in the process list - as expected.
• When I close the connection (definitely the property "Connected" returns FALSE), the connection is still shown on the servers process list.

On the server the Connection is not closed until I close the program.

Is there a way to close the TADOConnection in a way that really removes the connection on the server without exiting the program?

This is connection pooling; and is a good thing.

But if you really want to hurt performance, you can opt-out of connection pooling features by adding the request to your connection string:

Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=myServerAddress;Initial Catalog=myDataBase;
User ID=myUsername;Password=correct horse battery stapler;OLE DB Services=-2;

These OLE DB Services options are documented on MSDN:

Pooling in the Microsoft Data Access Components (archive)

OLE DB Services  Services enabled
===============  ==================================================
-1               All services (the default)
-2               All services except pooling
-4               All services except pooling and auto-enlistment
-5               All services except client cursor
-6               All services except client cursor and pooling
 0               No services
