Example
The following example locks the Product dimension of the FoodMart 2000 database, completely reprocesses it, and then unlocks it so others make changes:
Dim dsoServer As New DSO.Server
Dim dsoDB As DSO.MDStore
Dim dsoDim As DSO.Dimension
' Connect to local Analysis server.
dsoServer.Connect "LocalHost"
' Open FoodMart 2000 database.
Set dsoDB = dsoServer.MDStores("FoodMart 2000")
' Open the Product dimension.
Set dsoDim = dsoDB.Dimensions("Product")
' Lock the dimension for processing.
dsoDim.LockObject olapLockProcess, "Locked for processing."
' Completely reprocess the dimension.
dsoDim.Process processFull
' Once complete, unlock the dimension.
dsoDim.UnlockObject
' Clean up.
Set dsoDim = Nothing
Set dsoDB = Nothing
dsoServer.CloseServer
Set dsoServer = Nothing
