SSAS Calculated Members

  • Hi to all.

    I have a cube SSAS 2008 R2 ..

    In Calculation Tab i have a measure called i.e XYZ that is a number.

    In the properties i choose FORMAT STRING --- standard (I am not interested in CURRENCY Format).

    My problem is that when i browse this measure in SQL SERVER Management , it appears with good format.

    Example if it contains 12345,10 it si showed as 12,345.00

    SSAS was installed in US Language.

    When i browse this measure in Excel 2010- Or Excel 2010 this measure appears not the same..

    It appears 12345,10 without thousands separators...

    I need to format manually inside Excel...

    I work in Italy, so Excel it was installed in Italian Language.

    I read that it is possibile use an useful properties called LANGUAGE ..

    This property can be setted in each of calculated measure i need..

    (Look this article to understand better what i am talking about..)

    Using this property you can write something like this to comunicate to your client tool, Language you want to use...example LANGUAGE = 1033 it means United States and so on...

    Do anyone know where can i find all lists of these possible values of LANGUAGE Properties ???

    In my case i need LANGUAGE code for Europe or Italy...

    Regards in advance...

  • They're language ISO codes, Italian is 1040, the full list is here
