Incremental update programatically on OLAP Cube from VC++ application

[RL]

Hi,<br><br>I need to incremental update on OLAP cube from Visual c++ 6.0 application. Could you tell me if it's possible using DSO (msmddo.dll), ADO MD or another tools? How I do it?<br><br>On the other hand, if I import msmddo.dll from an Visual C++ 6.0 application an error ocurrs (&quot;#import referenced a type from a missing type library; '__missing_type__' used as a placeholder&quot.<br><br>What's about DTS OLAP Services Processing Task?<br><br>Did you know a book about this issues?<br><br>Thanks.<br>RL

It seems like you are the same boat at me.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, my problem is a little bit different.&nbsp;&nbsp;My problem is I don't know how I can access DSO from vc++ 6.0.&nbsp;&nbsp;I try to search for sample code that how to use DSO, but I can't find them.&nbsp;&nbsp;However, I did found a documment that may solve your problem, please see attach below.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you don't mind please share your souce code that how you access DSO from VC++.<br>Please email to me as this address: <A HREF="mailto:ngon@ecs.csus.edu">ngon@ecs.csus.edu</A><br>Thanks,<br>NN<br><br>PS. Hope this help you a bit<br><br>&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt;&lt;&gt; <br>*** Proble Description *** <br>How can you access DSO from VC++?

Msmddo.dll that came with the released version of OLAP Server had the <br>type lib info included in it, but it did not work.<br><br><br><br>Good news is, DSO can be used from VC starting sp1. In SP1, we stripped typelib<br>off of msmddo.dll and have msmddo.tlb. To sucessfully use DSO from VC++, you <br>need:<br><br><br><br>1. msmddo.dll (by default it is installed in C:\Program Files\OLAP<br>Services\bin)<br><br>2. msmddo.tlb (the typelib)<br><br>3. msmdint.dll (by default it is installed in C:\Program Files\Common<br>Files\System\ole db)<br><br><br><br>Basically you need the following lines in your cpp file:<br><br><br><br>#import &quot;c:\\program files\\common files\\system\\ole db\\msmdint.dll&quot;<br>named_guids&nbsp;&nbsp;no_namespace<br><br>#import &quot;c:\\program files\\olap services\\bin\\msmddo.tlb&quot; named_guids <br>no_namespace<br><br><br><br><br><br>However the problem is we never shipped the msmddo.tlb with sp1.
