SQL Server 2005

</DimensionAttribute>

Element Characteristics

Characteristic

Description

Data type and length

Default value

Ancestor or Parent	Default Value
DimensionAttribute	Varies (see Remarks)
ScalarMiningStructureColumn	None

Cardinality

0-1: Optional element that can occur once and only once.

Element Relationships

Relationship	Element
Parent elements	DimensionAttribute, ScalarMiningStructureColumn
Child elements	None

If the KeyColumns collection of DimensionAttribute contains a single KeyColumn element representing a key column with a string data type, the same DataItem values are used as default values for the NameColumn element.

For more information about the DataItem type, including a table of Analysis Services Scripting Language (ASSL) objects and properties of the DataItem type, see DataItem Data Type (ASSL).

The elements that correspond to the parents of NameColumn in the Analysis Management Objects (AMO) object model are DimensionAttribute and ScalarMiningStructureColumn.
