Fact Table/Dimension and Multiple Level Dimension

Hi Guys,

I have two questions on Analysis Service for SQL SERVER 2005:-

a) Is it possible for me to use two tables from my database without Primary Key. As this use to work on my Analysis Service on SQL SERVER 2000.

b) I had a multiple Level Dimension in SQL SERVER 2000 with Key Column as one column in my table and name column as another in my table. I am not able to do the same in SQL SERVER 2005.

Urgent help is requried.

Regards,

a)You do not need primary keys in the source data base but I think you need to set logical primary keys in the data source view.

b)Key and name columns are still separated in Analysis Services 2005.

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for Reply.

a) Yes i do understand that, but then what happens if i want to use the columns used in Primary key as levels in a Dimension?

b) I am still not understanding how to take kare of Key and Name Columns?
