How to: Iterate Through the Members of a Collection in Visual Basic .NET
This section describes how to iterate through all the databases on an instance of SQL Server by using a collection in Visual Basic .NET.

Run and build the application.
Esempio
'Connect to the local, default instance of SQL Server.
Dim srv As Server
srv = New Server
Dim count As Integer
Dim total As Integer
'Iterate through the databases and call the GetActiveDBConnectionCount method.
Dim db As Database
For Each db In srv.Databases
count = srv.GetActiveDBConnectionCount(db.Name)
total = total + count
'Display the number of connections for each database.
Console.WriteLine(count & " connections on " & db.Name)
Next
'Display the total number of connections on the instance of SQL Server.
Console.WriteLine("Total connections =" & total)
