Named Set in Excel Pivot Table Displays as Enumeration

Pardon me if this is really an Excel 2007 Pivot table question. I have a named set defined in the cube as:

CREATE SET CURRENTCUBE. [Team Building Overall]

AS {[Question].[Short Name].[Q-02],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-03],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-05],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-06],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-08],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-13],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-17],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-18],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-21],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-30],

[Question].[Short Name].[Q-31]};

And can display measure values for this set as whole in Proclarity with:

SELECT { [Measures].[Average]} ON COLUMNS ,

{ [Corporate Hierarchy].[Hierarchy].DEFAULTMEMBER } ON ROWS

FROM [360 Training Survey]

WHERE ([Team Building Overall], [Test Month].[Test Month].&[200704] )

CELL PROPERTIES VALUE, FORMATTED_VALUE, CELL_ORDINAL, ACTION_TYPE

In Excel 2007, unfortunately I can not use this set as a filter as I can in Proclarity. Rather, the best I can accomplish is to display this as 11 different columns, one for each member of this named set.

Any suggestions ?

Anyone ?

I figure I can create a calculated measure in the cube named [Team Building Overall Average] which is defined as ([Team Building Overall],[measures].[Average]), but this seems a bit klutzy, especially given that I have eight sets and six measures, thus resulting in a total of 48 calculate measures I need to create.

You could create a measure independant calculated member in the Question dimension as follows.

CREATE MEMBER CurrentCube.[Question].[Short Name].[Team Building Overall] AS AGGREGATE([Team Building Overall])

If the only reason that you have the sets is for filtering you could put the set definition inline in this memeber, otherwise you could leave them separate.

Named query as a pivot

Hello,

Is it possible to create a named query in the DSV that is the result of a pivot (e.g. cross tab?). The number of columns as a result of the pivot are based the number of records in one of the driving tables - in other words, it is not fixed.

You got to go dynamic SQL and use some fancy report datasets and expressions to display or not the columns.

Then you would have to create a report were you define as many columns as possible and control the visibility of these columns based on some expression stored in the Column Visibity hidden property.

Lot of work. May be you would be better off sourcing your report out of a cube.
