[RESOLVED] Get First Excel Worksheet name

I've tried using the following but it is returning the names alphabetically any ideas on how to get the first sheet in the workbook's name without using the excel object?

vb Code:

Dim objConn As OleDb.OleDbConnection
        Dim dt As DataTable = Nothing
 
        Try
            objConn = Connect()
            dt = objConn.GetOleDbSchemaTable(OleDb.OleDbSchemaGuid.Tables, Nothing)
            Close(objConn)
            Return dt.Rows(0).Item("TABLE_NAME").ToString.Replace("''", "'")
        Catch ex As Exception
            Return Nothing
        Finally
            If Not dt Is Nothing Then
                dt.Dispose()
            End If
            If Not objConn Is Nothing Then
                Close(objConn)
            End If
        End Try

vb Code:

'booo had to use DAO 
        Dim ExcelWB As DAO.Database
        Dim tbl As DAO.TableDef
        Dim JetEngine As New dao.DBEngine
        Dim SheetName As String
        ExcelWB = JetEngine.OpenDatabase(fileName, False, True, "Excel 8.0;")
        For Each tbl In ExcelWB.TableDefs
            SheetName = tbl.Name
            Exit For
        Next tbl
 
        ExcelWB.Close()

see comment :(

Hey,

Does that mean you have been able to solve your problem?

If so, remember to mark your thread as resolved.

thanks, yeah was trying to leave it open to see if anyone came up with a better solution but I'll stick with the DAO one.
