sql server reporting services: Hi all,

I am using reporting services 2005 based on analysis services 2005 cubes
datasource. I use oledb provider and connect to analysis services 9.0. I am
writing an expression in dataset which will evaluate to mdx query during
runtime. Now the issue is if the generated dynamic query cannot product even
a single row because of slicer, then I get an ugly error message.

If in a sql statement, the where clause we include make the query return
zero rows, then you wont see any data for your report, but you dont see an
error. But here in RS with mdx, you are getting error. How to avoid this? Is
there any work around available to solve this issue while creating datasets.

Thanks.

Hello,

Thank you for your post in MSDN newsgroup!

To understand the issue better, I'd like to know the following information:

1. What is the exact error message you encountered? Is is saying there are
multiple measures in the WHERE clause even though there is only one
measure? If so, this shall be known issue in AS 2005.

2. Does the issue occur if you run the MDX directly on SSMS? If you use
"Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services" instead of OlEDB provider for
Analysis Service, does the issue still occur?

3. If the error message is different from that mentioned above, will you
provide us a simple sample project by using Adventure works sample
database, so that we may be able to reproduce the issue on our side? YOu
could send it to me at petery@microsoft.com.

If you have other related information, please also let's know.
