anyone knows how to translate this into MDX?

SELECT DATEDIFF(day, o.datecreated, getdate()) AS no_of_days_pastdue

I'm just counting the number of days since a invoice was created and I am
not sure how to do this in AS.



Has anyone follow this article?

I keep getting syntax errors. I am using AS 2000.

can anyone get this to work?

DATEDIFF("d", [Calendar].[Day], Now())

Not sure why I am getting unknown dimension for my calendar.

This is what I have so far:

WITH MEMBER [Measures].[DaysPast] AS

'DATEDIFF("d",[Calendar].CurrentMember, date())'

SELECT {[Measures].[DaysPast], [Measures].[Amount Due]} on columns,
[Account Invoices].[Account Name].members on rows

FROM [Account Invoices History]

but I get an #error in the dayspast field.

I am so frustrated with MDX, simple things are not simple.

Does anyone know why this would not work?

[Account Invoices].[Account Name].CurrentMember.Properties("Days Past")

I got it to work but unfortunately it is not what I need. I need it to be
dynamic.

Help, does anyone know how to get datediff to work in AS 2000?

Sam, [Calendar].currentMember probably is not in the date format, you need to
convert to date format. If the name for the member is already in date format,
you should use [Calendar].currentmember.name, hope this helps.
