<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=094362516-08092008><FONT face=Verdana
color=#000080 size=2>However, I think you can achieve a similar effect today by
creating a single-level hierarchy with the same definition as your attribute.
The main difference is that you'd type <FONT face="Courier New"
color=#000000>[My Day of Week].CurrentMember</FONT> rather than <FONT
face="Courier New" color=#000000>[Date].[Day of
Week].CurrentMember</FONT>.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P class=MsoNormal>Does Mondrian support attribute hierarchies like Analysis

<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>We have reviewed the Dimension schema configuration and it
doesn’t appear that this is possible. We suspect that we’ll have
to rely on using member properties to achieve this exact requirement of
adjusting some measure by the number of working days under the given date
member.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>The MDX that we’d like to be able to use is as follows
(where “Day of Week” is an attribute hierarchy):<o:p></o:p></P>
