Measure (Decision Support Objects)

The Measure object in Decision Support Objects (DSO) provides support for measures. The Measures collection of the DSO Cube, Partition, and Aggregation objects provides access to cube, partition, and aggregation measures, respectively.

All three types of measures are supported with DSO objects. Each measure object detailed in the following table uses the Measure interface, with the ClassType property set to the appropriate value for the level type as shown.

Measure type Measure object Measure class type
Cube measure CubeMeasure clsCubeMeasure
Partition measure PartitionMeasure clsPartitionMeasure
Aggregation measure AggregationMeasure clsAggregationMeasure

The Measure object is used to edit the properties, such as the aggregation function and source column, associated with a measure in Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 Analysis Services.
