Answer 1

Yes sqlcommand.cancel is your friend http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlcommand.cancel.aspx

Answer 2

Yes, you can cancel the query by using SqlCommand.Cancel. However, the command must be running in another thread (otherwise Cancel will be called only after the command is finished).

Also you can specify a CommandTimeout if you want to cancel this query when it runs over a specified time limit.

Answer 3

You can do myCommand.Cancel(), and this will work best as even i have face similar issue in past, and using myCommand.Cancel() i have solved my issue. :) :)
