Select Data in Worksheet 1
 

I am able to select data from worksheet 1 if I know the sheet name...

OleDbCommand objCmdSelect =new OleDbCommand("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]",
objConn);

How would I just get the data from the first (primary sheet) if I do not
know the name of Sheet1$ ?

Thanks in advance!

This self-same question was asked back in April. Here is my suggested
solution using ADOX to get that first sheet name
