DataSourceControl ConnectionTimeOut Property Is Ignored

When you work with the DataSourceControl (DSC) of an Office Web Component, you may specify a CommandTimeOut value for the Connection object. When you then build a query or RecordsetDef based on the Connection object, your CommandTimeOut value is ignored. The operation times out at the default value of 30 seconds.
