Change the connection string (as mentioned in comment) from:

string cnn = string.Format( 
    "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;" +
    "data source={0}{1}{2};" +
    "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;", 
    fileLocation, fileName, fileExtension);

to:

string cnn = string.Format( 
    "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;" +
    "data source={0}{1}{2};" +
    "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;HDR=No", 
    fileLocation, fileName, fileExtension);
