==Usage==
This activity is used to start the communication with an OLE compliant data source. It is a nestable activity, which means it can host any amount of sub-activities that will be processed sequentially. The hosted activities are typically [[Activity:CreateOLETableScope (Activity)|CreateOLETableScope]] activities, either as direct children but also wrapped within looping activities like ForEach or While.
