I am using WebFocus 7.6.4 and when I right click on the master files and click NEW, I get the following choices:

Synonym
Sysonym via Editor
Upload Data File

I don't get the Dimension Builder

Does any have any idea why I don't get it.

If anybody from IBI wants to help, call me at (212)878-0264.

Thank you.

If you choose the Synonym Editor, you get a tool with multiple tabs including a modeling tab which will allow you to create dimensions.

that is true what you said - my question is why can't I get it to work as the mini-demo shows. The mini demo shows a tool that I want - not the one that I have now

Sorry, I don't know the answer to that question nor do I know which mini-demo you are referring to.

We use almost all relational sources here and as a standard do not modify the masters after creation. If I was going to create dimensions, I would use the OLAP Dimensions tool available from the Procedure Viewer.

Sorry I can't be more help. Maybe someone else can.
