Default (SSAS 2K5) MDX and Translations : how does it work ? - 04-18-2006 , 08:33 AM






Hi,

When you run a MDX query against an SSAS 2K5 cube that has been created with
translations, which of the languages can be used for dimension names,
measures, attributes etc... ?

Is it possible to use a language which is not the default language ? and how ?

thx&rgds,
Francois

the name of a dimension is the one you create in VS.
"Customer" still customer any time for your MDX queries.
if you setup a specific "English" language and rename "Customer" to
"Client", then the query which use [customer].members... continue to works.

you can change the language by providing a specific one in the connection
string, or the system will use the end user language (for example, an French
Excel user see french labels)
