https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/SAS-Olap-Cubes/m-p/70036#M6994 I am trying to get started with OLAP cubes, but I am having difficulty with some basic questions. Just googling it, I see a lot about SAS OLAP server and SAS OLAP Cube Studio. Can I create and work with cubes using only Base SAS? Anyone know where there is a simple Getting Started reference?<BR /> <BR /> Thanks,<BR /> Chris Tue, 08 Sep 2009 12:46:20 GMT cjohnson 2009-09-08T12:46:20Z https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/SAS-Olap-Cubes/m-p/70036#M6994 I am trying to get started with OLAP cubes, but I am having difficulty with some basic questions.

"User's Guide" should be a good starting point. There are some SAS Global forum papers on the subject as well.<BR /> <BR /> /Linus Tue, 08 Sep 2009 13:34:53 GMT https://communities.sas.com/t5/SAS-Enterprise-Guide/SAS-Olap-Cubes/m-p/70037#M6995 LinusH 2009-09-08T13:34:53Z
