Hi,

Microstrategy version 7.2.3. I have set a default drill map under project configuration/drilling. Yet, if I build a new report, I still need to associate it to a drill map because no drill map is associated by default. In version 7.2.0 that was done by default. Any ideas why?
thanks, OV

Has anyone had any experince with exporting to Lotus 123?
I can do it as a two step process: First export to CSV file and then to Lotus. However, formating it is not very good and users get confused of where they saved the report or how to open a CSV file etc. Is there a way to automate it as a...
Hi
I have the following scenario: User Group B is a member group of User Group A. In A, security should be less restrictive then in B. For example, users in A can see everything within a country while users in B can see only their state. The problem is that those two filters are combined by an...

I have the following situation. In a project, I have two completely unrelated fact tables. Different users can see
different slices of data from each table. The only way I believe I can controll that is by creating security filters. The problem is that if I can have only one security filter...
