Automation of adding new measures into model

[Kaiaualad]

Is it possible to automate the adding of new measures appearing in an existing datasource into a model?
How would a macro pick up a new column and add it as a new measure? I have not seen any scripting yet that has done this and am wondering if it has been done before.

You would have to create a script to open up an .imr file, that saves as a .iqd, and then the .iqd file has to do a "modify columns" (to add the new column to the model), then the .mdl saved, then run the .mdl to get the .mdc. I know the language is in the help files somewhere, and you can probably put it together with that information. good luck.
