Default MDX and MetaData - 11-15-2004 , 05:14 PM






Is it possible to retrieve metadata using MDX query. For example: I'd like
to get information about hierchies and levels of dimension in some cube.

Look in BOL under the topic "Schema Rowsets".
You can use ADO against a connection to PTS.
BOL has sample code in it.
