pivot tables & offline cube access

Is it possible to have multiple pivot tables in the same Excel workbook accessing the same offline cube file?

Currently, when the user is connected to the server it connects to a .asdatabase to populate many pivot tables. I need to allow the user to access a local cube file when they are not connected to the server.

I am using excel vba macros to connect the pivot caches to the online data source, which works perfectly. I would like to do the same to connect the pivot caches to the local cube file.

Is this possible? The local cube file is created off the server database using MDX (create global cube).

Thanks,
Lyn

If this is AS2005 - there is a bug in this area that is being fixed in the SP2 release. I think the fix would allow you to do what you've described.|||
