Default Date Dimension for just hours ? - 01-05-2004 , 10:33 PM






I have 2 dimensions for time...
1) date dimension for days of year (ie 365/366 entries per year)
2) time dimension with minute granularity (ie 1440 entries)

When I define the dimensions using the analysis manager, what is the
right way to deal time dimension ? I the date dimension seems to get
special treatment since the wizard asks me if this is a date
dimension.

-- Thanks, is advance Andrew
