    <p>So, I have the same symptoms as described in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/472079/c-asp-net-oledb-ms-excel-read-unspecified-error/5621884">C#/ASP.NET Oledb - MS Excel read &quot;Unspecified error&quot;</a>, but my <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/472079/c-asp-net-oledb-ms-excel-read-unspecified-error/5621884#5621884">my answer</a> did not seem to fix it. Even always closing the OleDBConnection and disposing of it show the same symptoms.</p> <pre><code>var connectionString = string.Format("Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0; data source={0}; Extended Properties=Excel 12.0;", _excelFile); using (var conn = new OleDbConnection(connectionString)) { try { DoSomething(); } finally { conn.Close(); } } </code></pre> <p>Now I have found the following info on connection pooling:</p> <blockquote> <p>The .NET Framework Data Provider for OLE DB automatically pools connections using OLE DB session pooling. Connection string arguments can be used to enable or disable OLE DB services including pooling. For example, the following connection string disables OLE DB session pooling and automatic transaction enlistment.</p> <p>Provider=SQLOLEDB;OLE DB Services=-4;Data Source=localhost;Integrated Security=SSPI;</p> <p>We recommend that you always close or dispose of a connection when you are finished using it in order to return the connection to the pool. Connections that are not explicitly closed may not get returned to the pool. For example, a connection that has gone out of scope but that has not been explicitly closed will only be returned to the connection pool if the maximum pool size has been reached and the connection is still valid.</p> </blockquote> <p>(Source: <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms254502.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms254502.aspx</a>)</p> <p>What is the connection string property <code>OLE DB SERVICES</code> and what is a value of <code>-4</code>?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
