Well, unfortunately, this isn't especially easy from CF (unless you're using BlueDragon.NET). The only way I'm aware of is the use of XML for Analysis Provider: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnsql2k/htm l/implementxap.asp You could then use the JPivot JSP custom tag to render your OLAP navigation interface: http://jpivot.sourceforge.net/ Dave Watts, CTO, Fig Leaf Software http://www.figleaf.com/ Fig Leaf Software provides the highest caliber vendor-authorized instruction at our training centers in Washington DC, Atlanta, Chicago, Baltimore, Northern Virginia, or on-site at your location.
