Exceptions

The connection is already open.

A connection-level error occurred while opening the connection.

Remarks

The OleDbConnection draws an open connection from the connection pool if one is available. Otherwise, it establishes a new connection to the data source. You can open more than one DataReader on a single OleDbConnection. If the OLEDB provider you use does not support more than one active DataReader on a single connection, the OLEDB provider implicitly opens an additional connection for each.

Note

If the OleDbConnection goes out of scope, it is not closed. Therefore, you must explicitly close the connection by calling Close or Dispose, or using the connection within a Using statement.
