RE: XMLA response xml query

[Graeme Riddell]

Sumeet, did you make progress? When I implemented XMLA Execute support within our product line, I did so largely by reference to the xmla1.1.doc document on this XMLA.org site:   http://www.xmla.org/docs_pub.asp     Additionally, the system that I happened to be testing against sent back a SOAP response indicating it was xsd:string return type rather than XML, so we needed to make a tweak in our SOAP response handling to accommodate that. There's a decent example in that doc of a XMLA SOAP response, as I say the real life example I encountered differed only in having the xsd:string specified as follows:   <return xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:type="xsd:string"> -gr    -----Original Message----- From: Mike Burati Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2003 9:58 AM To: Graeme Riddell Subject: FW: response xml query   -----Original Message----- From: Sumeet Satish Agarkar [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 09, 2003 9:53 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: response xml query Thank you Mike. I'll check up on the link you have sent. I have tried sending three MDX queries to get the data from OLAP using msxisapi.dll Each time depending on the data I want to fetch <Axis Info name="Axis0"> for the columns <Axis Info name="Axis1"> for the rows and <Axis Info name="SlicerAxis"> for the values as elements. The child elements vary according to the amount of data. I wanted to know if there is a specific relationship between the query I send the response XMLA I get.  Thanks.   Regards, Sumeet Agarkar Software Engineer MAC Infosys Technologies Limited® Bangalore.
