OLAP cube - formula length

Hi

dear all,

does anybody know the maximum length for an mdx formula for a calculated member in SSAS?

Kind regards

No hard limit in SSAS 2005.|||

Hi

i find this kind of hard to believe...

I have a formula with over 4000 characters... processing this cube is impossible

the formula is a formula in the form of iif(errorcheck, 0, iif(errorcheck,0... etc

if i use the basic formula without the iif's the cube processes without any problems....

Kind regards

|||There is a syntax error in your formula somewhere, and the error message should give you an idea about location of this error. The syntax error is the real cause of why your cube doesn't deploy, not the length of the formula.|||

Hi

about the max length: is this tied to any service pack version? we are using sp1
also the thing is that there is no error in the formula,
for when we use it in a normal mdx query it works without any problem...
only when in the cube things go wrong

|||The fact that it works inside MDX query means that there is no problem with the length. What is the exact error message you are getting when you are trying to deploy cube with such calculated member ?
