Author Accessing repository via DSO
MAF

Does anyone know if there is anyway for me to access the repository
connection string using the DSO library?

I am working with Analysis server and I want a quick way to get the list of
Cubes? If I can get this connection string I should be able to query the
OLAPObjects table for what I need. I think this will be quicker than
looping through each database.

Thanks

No, I don't think you can get the repository connection string from DSO.
And it is not a good idea to access it directly anyway.

I have a VBScript on my blog that will use DSO to list all the cubes and
their sizes. You should be able to adapt this script to your particular
needs.
