I’m using the OLEDB connection string for this and it appears that whenever I try to load an Excel file (I’m using .NET) it takes an incredibly loooong time. This causes a timeout and most files greater than a certain size can’t be loaded into the program. Is there any other way or pattern I can use to make everything work faster (The data loading I mean)?
I don’t have the exact code but I just used a simple connection and a dataTable.Fill()
Settled for a slightly faster approach using DataReader. Looks like there’s not a lot I could do to improve the speed.
