Default Approach to drillthrough to Partitioned cube - 02-09-2006 , 03:43 PM






Hello,

My company is running MS Analysis Services 2000. We make frequent use
of partitioned cubes. We use a combination of Excel (OWC) and Cognos
as our presentation tools. I'm looking to implement drillthrough in
the near future and would like to know what the best approach to doing
this is.

The problem that I've run into with nearly all presentation tools is
that they only recognize the first partition of data returned from the
cube. I've found the drillthrough.htc file from the OWC toolpack and
some code from this post that will enable it to work against
multi-partitioned cubes, so I do have a solution.

My question is this - What is the preferred way to implement
drillthrough to a partitioned cube, and be able to get data back from
any partition? I can use the file that I hacked around, but I would
like to know if there is a standard / preferred Microsoft solution to
drillthrough to a partitioned cube.

Any help / recommendations would be greatly appreciated,

Justin

I hate to be a pain.. can you tell me which OWC toolpack you're looking for?

I need to find that HTC for the SQL 2005 side of the equation

I found the drillthrough.htc file in the OWC v10 toolpack. I'm running
on AS2000; so I can't gaurantee this will work for you.
Here's the link where I downloaded.
