Anybody got Business Objects reading from a SQL Server 7.0 OLAP Services cube?

Business Objects claim that they can speak ODBO...

I've been doing some research on this and I think you may need this bit of software?

Thanks Nick,
    Looks like they've finally managed to connect to OLAP Services. I think that the original problem was that Business Objects creates a cube, so why should you need to run from a pre-generated cube.
I hear that they've recently bought OLAP@Work so am wondering whether that is/or will replace the OLAP Services Access Pack.

From looking at the picture on the link that you included I notice that it doesn't actually bring the data into the normal Business Objects front-end (which is what I am really after). I want to be able to use the power of BusObj and the performance of OLAP Services for the cube.

Jez.

p.s. are you going to fill in any of your details in your 'Personal Profile' or do you wish to remain anonymous?
