Is it neccessary to set OLE variants to unassigned or are they
automatically set when going out of scope?

procedure Test;
var
  DBEngine: Variant;
  Workspace: Variant;
begin
  DBEngine := CreateOLEObject('DAO.DBEngine');
  try
    Workspace := DBEngine.Workspaces[0];
    try
      Workspace.abc;
      Workspace.xyz;
    finally
      Workspace := Unassigned; { <---- is this necessary }
    end;
  finally
    DBEngine := Unassigned; { <---- is this necessary }
  end;
end;

TIA
