    // When using the connection string, a new connection is initialised,
    // which will be closed after the function is executed.
    // If several operations are performed, it is desirable to use one connection,
    // previously created by the CreateConnection function()
    Result = OPI_PostgreSQL.CreateDatabase(Base, ConnectionString);
