Good afternoon all,

I am training myself and updateing my skill set in SQL 2005 Business Intelligence, and using the MS Press TK 70-445. In Chapter 16, Lesson #3, Exercise #1, Step 4(this is on page 483), instructs to enter the following MDX statement in SSMS while connected to Analysis Services:

select ([Measures].[Internet Sales Amount], [Measures].[Reseller Sales Amount]) on columns,
[Dim Product].[Product].[Product].Members on rows
from [Adventure Works DW]

I get the following error:
"The 'Measures' hierarchy appears more than once in the tuple."

If I remove either "Internet Sales Amount", or "Reseller Sales Amount", and re-submit the mdx query with just one of the preceding elements from "measures", the query runs fine.

Just to ensure, my Project and Cube are correct, I used the SSAS Project code modules provided on the companion CD for this exercise, imported into BIDS, and deployed.

Anyone familiar with this training materials?

Thanks....
