Linq to Excel, get column names from CSV file - excel

Question

I need to get the column headers of CSV files with LINQ to Excel
I use the code specified on https://github.com/paulyoder/LinqToExcel
This works perefectly for .XLSX files but not for CSV
//Select File
var book = new LinqToExcel.ExcelQueryFactory(link + #"\" + fileName);
//Select firtworkbook
var query = (from row in book.Worksheet(0) select row).ToList();
var workSheetName = book.GetWorksheetNames();
var columnNames = (from row in book.GetColumnNames(workSheetName.FirstOrDefault()) select row).ToList();
I also tried hardcoding the sheet name and calling the CSV sheet1
var columnNames = (from row in book.GetColumnNames("Sheet1") select row).ToList();
This breaks and gives me this error:
Message = "'54733658.csv' is not a valid worksheet name in file...
I double checked it is the correct path.
I then tried:(It takes worksheet name which is the same as file name - extention)
string extension = System.IO.Path.GetExtension(fileName);
string result = fileName.Substring(0, fileName.Length - extension.Length);
var colNames = book.GetColumnNames(result, "A1:F1").ToList();
This gives me the following error:
The Microsoft Jet database engine could not find the object '02119249$A1_Z1.txt'. Make sure the object exists and that you spell its name and the path name correctly.
I googled that error those results are not applicable.

I don't have enough time to figure out why I cant read the CSV column headers
For those of you who have the same issue:
Read the first line and make a list of strings, here is my method:
public List<string> ColumnNameGenerator(string FilePath)
{
string firstLine = "";
using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(FilePath))
{
firstLine = reader.ReadLine() ?? "";
}
return firstLine.Split(',').ToList();
}
