Default newbee - how to see real data - 02-24-2004 , 07:20 AM






Hi people !
I wonder how is possible to see more detailed data from excel by clicking (selecting) the cell. I made report with PivotTable and data from OLAP Services / SQL 7.0 and I want to retrieve all the rows (that contained measured data) by clicking the cell in excel. For ex. if I have report Sales with dimensions Customers and Product, and cell which contain 5 sold productA, how can I retrieve this 5 rows with detailed Sales data (ProductName,StoreName,Time, Adress,etc....). It's possible to conect every cell with microsoft query, to pass parameters and get whatever you want... or some other way ?

thanks for answers!

Sorry, you can't do drillthrough in SQL 7.0 - this was introduced with SS2K
(Analysis Services).

Once there, there is a good explanation and example of this on Microsoft's
website -
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...extendolap.asp.
You should just be able to clone the VBA code (it's not too bad). Also know
that you have to enable drillthrough permissions in the cube, itself.

There also some requirements for the pivottable version - isn't there ?

Good point - since he's doing this in Excel, he needs Excel 2002 or greater.
