Hi,
I am having a bit of a problem with retreiving member properties from our AS2005 cube. I'm using MDX query's in a VBA Excel app via ADO (not ADOMD). I've been prototyping the queries in the SQL Server Management Studio.
I currently have the following query:
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Portfolio] AS '[Trade].[Trade By Source System].CurrentMember.Properties("Portfolio")'
SELECT NON EMPTY {
[Measures].[Portfolio],
[Measures].[CR 01 Net Skw Adj USD],
[Measures].[JTD 01 USD]
} ON COLUMNS,
NonEmpty(Exists({[Trade].[Trade By Source System].[Trade Id].MEMBERS},[Trade].[Trade By Source System].[Source System].&[Calypso]))
ON ROWS
FROM [GCD]
WHERE ([Close Date].[Close Date].[Day].[01 Dec 2006], [Trade].[Trade By Business Unit].[Book Group].[LNCT])
This works fine, however I now want to CrossJoin the measures [CR 01 Net Skw Adj USD] and [JTD 01 USD] with a dimension called CS Tenor in order to give me a seperate value for each Tenor.
So far the only way I can do this is with the following query:
WITH
MEMBER [Measures].[Portfolio] AS '[Trade].[Trade By Source System].CurrentMember.Properties("Portfolio")'
SELECT NON EMPTY {
[Measures].[Portfolio],
[Measures].[CR 01 Net Skw Adj USD],
[Measures].[JTD 01 USD]
} * {[CSTenor].[CS Tenor].MEMBERS}
ON COLUMNS,
NonEmpty(Exists({[Trade].[Trade By Source System].[Trade Id].MEMBERS},[Trade].[Trade By Source System].[Source System].&[Calypso]))
ON ROWS
FROM [GCD]
WHERE ([Close Date].[Close Date].[Day].[01 Dec 2006], [Trade].[Trade By Business Unit].[Book Group].[LNCT])
This has the unfortunate side effect of CrossJoining the Portfolio member property with Tenor as well, resulting in 9 unwanted Portfolio columns (there are 9 members in CS Tenor). In reality the problem is more severe as I have around 10 member properties in the query, I reduced it to 1 here for simplicity.
My question is: Can I bring back member properties on the Rows axis? and a seperate question is: Can I CrossJoin some measures and not other on the columns axis, for example, could I CrossJoin [CR 01 Net Skw Adj USD] with CS Tenor, but not [JTD 01 USD] ?
Many thanks!
I don't believe you can cross join some measures and not other on the column axis but assuminng portfolio is an attribute of your Trade dimension the you can try this on your rows axis:
NonEmpty(Exists({[Trade].[Trade By Source System].[Trade Id].MEMBERS},[Trade].[Trade By Source System].[Source System].&[Calypso],strtomember("[Trade].[Portfolio].[" + [Trade].[Trade By Source System].CurrentMember.Properties("Portfolio") + "]") ))
Hope this helps.

|||Actually, you should be able to do what you want on the column axis by simply constructing the full set of tuples that you want back. Here's an example from Adventure Works:
select
{ [Date].[Calendar Year].Members } on rows,
{ { [Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] } * { [Product].[Category].Members }, ( [Measures].[Internet Gross Profit], [Product].[Category].[All Products] ) } on columns
from
[Adventure Works]
In this query, I'm just pulling back calendar years on rows. On the columns, I'm pulling back the [Internet Sales Amount] measure cross joined with the product categories along with the [Internet Gross Profit] measure -- but with it coming back only with [All Products], not all the product cateogries. The only caveat is that all the tuples returned have to have the same dimensionality. Thus the need to return [Internet Gross Profit] with a member (in this case, the [All Products] member) of the same hierarchy used in the cross join that generates the first set of tuples.
In your case, you'd want something like this (not knowing exactly what your [All] member is, I just called it [All CS Tenors]):
{ { [Measures].[CR 01 Net Skw Adj USD] * [CSTenor].[CS Tenor].Members }, ( [Measures].[JTD 01 USD], [CSTenor].[CS Tenor].[All CS Tenors] ) } on columns

Sorry for the delay in replying, I've been on vaction.
Many many thanks for this solution, it works perfectly!
