I Julian,

Thanks for the answer.

I've already read the tutorial.

I am asking because in Microsoft website I saw an example using CASE/WHEN for select.

I need to use the same idea for the WHERE.

Can you give me a way in how to do that ?

Thanks in advance.

Kleyson Rios.

You are making a mistake that many people make when learning MDX. You are assuming that the MDX WHERE clause has the same purpose as the SQL WHERE clause. MDX WHERE clause does not contain a boolean expression. I suggest that you read a tutorial on MDX.
