# DSUnbind

int DSUnbind (int panelHandle, int controlID, HRESULT *dataSocketError);

## Purpose

Unbinds a control from a DataSocket object and frees the resources used by it.

Linux This function is not supported.

If the control being unbound is a graph, and you did not specify a plotID at the time the graph was bound, LabWindows/CVI deletes the plot. If the graph is in discard mode, the plot will not be deleted.
