csharp

public void CloneAConnection()
{
  UniConnection myConnection = new UniConnection("Provider=SQL Server;Data Source=SERVER;Initial Catalog=Northwind;User ID=sa");
  UniConnection myConnection2 = (UniConnection)myConnection.Clone();
  Console.WriteLine(myConnection2.UserId);
}

  Dim myConnection As New UniConnection("Provider=SQL Server;Data Source=SERVER;Initial Catalog=Northwind;User ID=sa")
  Dim myConnection2 As UniConnection = CType(myConnection.Clone(), UniConnection)
  Console.WriteLine(myConnection2.UserId)
End Sub
