call SqlServer scalar function from .NET

I know how to call stored procedures from VB.NET, but is there a way to call Scalar Functions from .NET code? WOuld this work, even though I am calling a function and not a procedure?


            Dim cn As New SqlConnection("server=.\ddb;database=SFS;integrated security = true")
            cn.Open()

            Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("monthsForPivot", cn)
            'Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("make_fundingNew_05_dynamic_grossCenter", cn)
            cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure

            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@endMonth", "200512")
            cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@format", "MTH")
