I agree with the above esp. SQLDenis' virtual labs. I think the best way to learn is to have a textbook/BOL + the hands-on environment. www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Just as an appendix to MDXer's excellent post - ROLAP is relational and HOLAP is a hybrid (combo of both MOLAP multidimensional and ROLAP). There is also DOLAP (just in case you were running out of things to think about...) www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Thanks for the updates guys. It's always a tough call as to when you do a major upgrade. I have incorporated your informal responses to my current upgrade assessment/recommendations. www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

I know it's early days but I was wondering how many are planning or have kicked off an upgrade to SS2005? Any initial problems or learnings? Thanks. www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Thanks for the links Jacque. Sending you a star! www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Hi toray, SSRS printing can be a little fiddly. Have you tried: - removing the margins (default "1") - reducing the cell padding? What version of SSRS are you running? HTH www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Hi ching0418, Did you manage to integrate CR with MSAS? www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Hi riska, Not really - we also have automated Windows updates but a drop by that much in performance would appear to me at least that something else is at play. Would you mind sharing what tests you might have run to verify/isolate cause? www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Some comparisons: http://baadd.org/uploads/SQL%20Reporting%20Services%20vs%20Crystal%20Reports%20comparative%20analysis.pdf http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/SSRSandCR_ExecSummary.asp http://www.kenhamady.com/ssrscomp.pdf www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

I concur with SQLDenis and vogrunt, the comparison should be like against like. CrystalXI = COGNOS ReportNet = SQLServer Reporting Services (or thereabouts) These tools have greater visual functionality in report/query creation (to mention but one) compared to Query Analyzer as QA was designed...

Hi plarson13, Did your error carry over to Production? www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Thanks SQLDenis. www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Hi bobetko, There's no right or wrong answer I guess, it would really depend on: - volume of data - complexity of analysis/extract - type of analysis (multidimensional data?) - budget (how much can you spend?) - mode of delivery Any ideas? www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community

Let me look into this one and get back to you. It should be quite possible with DTS. Cheers www.SQLobSERVER.com the Microsoft BI/DW community
