[Mondrian] RE: I need help conecting to Teradata (Julian Hyde)

Thanks for that, unfortunately I am still having problems, I now don't have
the problem with the '>' delimiter. What I did was create a new cube
definition, very simple so I can test it. I modified the xml so it includes
de Database name, but none of the .xml worked. Teradata is not case
sensitive so that isn't a problem, but the query that mondrian is creating
is not working, Maybe I added the DB name in too may places (I added in
every 'Table' and 'Table name' field). I took the liberty to attach both
cube definitions and both error logs to help you help me. xD.
I modified the query from the modified definition so that it would work in
teradata, the 'correct' query would be:

select sum("GC_LiDEr_WRK"."TBL_CUBO_CLIENTES_MCL_3000"."MONTO_CHEQUE") as
"m0"
from "TBL_CUBO_CLIENTES_MCL_3000"

I hope you can help me a bit more, I feel I'm getting close. Thanks a
million.

PS: I dont think it matters, but the JDBC driver I use in cube designer is
older that the one in Design Studio, for some reason the new one does not
connect in CD and the old one doesn't connect in DS.
