I am new to Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services and MDX.
How can I find out the datatype of measures in MDX?
The measures I am trying to find the datatype for are defined using a WITH clause which as I understand means that it is possible for each measure to have multiple datatypes.
回答1:
How about the TypeName function:
WITH
Member [Measures].[My Type] as
TypeName([Measures].[My Other Measure])
Etc...
