Openning Information Maps with Excel

[deleted_user]

When openning IM in Excel I only see (in the MAPS folder) maps that are based on SAS Tables. I need to open a map based on a CUBE (to get to computed columns in the map). How do I do that?

Hi:
See this Tech Support note: http://support.sas.com/kb/38/468.html about OLAP cubes AMO 2.1 -- you might want to verify with Tech Support whether this note still applies to your configuration of AMO.

To contact Tech Support fill out the form at this link:

Thanks for the quick reply!

Yes, that note still applies to AMO and EG.

Thank you !
This is unfortunate since calculated members (new objects created in th IM) are not available in Excel...
