weird little error message about not being able to connect to data
source

Hello --

Thanks in advance for any insight into this stuff. I've got analysis
services set up on a reporting server. That is where the Cubes
process. I also have analysis services set up on my workstation. I
can browse or process a Cube from my workstation. However, I cannot
EDIT a Cube from my workstation. I get this funky

"Unable to connect to the ____ data source" erro message. Any ideas?
I know its probably something simple but I'm unable to put my finger
on it.

Thanks.

Check your data source folder in the cube using Analysis
Manager and make sure the connection is still valid. Use
the "test connection" button.

You won't be able to Edit or process a cube if the data
source is not valid.
