The answer to the first question is that it does indeed hit the data base again. WebFOCUS doesn't create an intermediate cube.

Hi Gobinath,

Is this related to the other OLAP issue you have?

Cheers,

Kerry

In 7.1.7 Ginny is absolutely correct.

However if you can upgrade to 7.6.7 or higher then you have the Caching capability available.

You still go back to the server to get the data but you will use the cached data and not
have to go back to the original data source.
