I am tring to create a simple dump of data from an MS OLAP cube. I want to show all values for all members that I have selected. My problem is that if the criteria selected returns a dimension member that is empty, the member does not show at all. I want the empty member to show to that the all records will remain in the same place (row). The master file is as follows for the dimension:

$  DIMENSION:  Datatype
    FIELDNAME=DATATYPE_PARENT, ALIAS='Datatype Parent', USAGE=A17, ACTUAL=A17, MISSING=ON,
      TITLE='Datatype Parent',
      WITHIN='*[Datatype]', $
    FIELDNAME=DATATYPE_LEAF, ALIAS='Datatype Leaf', USAGE=A24, ACTUAL=A24,
      TITLE='Datatype Leaf',
      WITHIN='DATATYPE_PARENT', $
The fex code is as follows:
TABLE FILE REVENUE
SUM
     RAMOUNT AS ''
BY
     DATATYPE_PARENT
BY
     PROD_TIER_NM
ACROSS
     DATEPERIOD
Everthing looks fine until one of the 'DATATYPE_PARENT' members is empty, then it does not show at all in the report and the remaining member shift up. I have tried adjusting the 'MISSING' attribute in the master file without any luck.

Any suggestions?
