OLAP - Add the capability to load cell text formatting from the OLAP datasource and show it by default

Getting wrong field data types of a selected cube after connecting to Analysis Services 2008

created 14 years ago

Hello,
i have build a OLAP browser based on OLAP demo 2010 v1.9.
Now, if i connect to an AS2008 via
pivotGridControl1.OLAPConnectionString = connectionDesigner.ConnectionString;
pivotGridControl1.BeginUpdate();
pivotGridControl1.RetrieveFields();
pivotGridControl1.EndUpdate();
my XtraPivotGrid will be filled, but field data types are not correct.
For example a money dimension in cube is retrieved as double value.
Thanks for help, regards
Patrick.

    Hello Patrick,
    Thank you for your question. The XtraPivotGrid does not allow retrieving cell format if the OleDB data provider is used. It is necessary to use the ADOMD provider, which supports this capability. The ADOMD provider was introduced in the XtraPivotGrid version 10.2 ( OLAP - Add the capability to load cell text formatting from the OLAP datasource and show it by default ). Please refer to the PivotGridAdomdDataSource help topic for additional information.
    Thanks,
    Constant

      Thank you, now it works.
