Browsing cubes through interfaces other than the BI Studio?

I've built a cube, deployed it and processed it. I can use the brower in the BI Studio to see the data subsets and can manipulate it. How do I get this cube to the user without having to install BI Studios on their computer?

Basically how do I get the cube into IIS so the user can just open a web browser and go to it? Similar to how cognos does it with their cubes. Or is this not possible?

I see no way to view the cube unless you are using the BI Studio to open it. Am I missing something?

You are indee missing quite a lot.

There are many different ways to browse a cube using different applications. Just to name a few: Excel, Office Web Components ( you see it embedded in BI Dev studio), ProClarity, and many others.

After building a cube you should decide on the way you going to let your users to browse a cube data. Take a look at client application and evaluate which one works for you the best and then deploy it on client machines.

Try out a new PivotTables in Beta of Office2007.

Could you point me to some documentation on or the correct direction to being able to view the cubes through a web interface? I'd like to be able to use strictly Server 2003 and SQL 2005 and be able to deploy these cubes to IIS for viewing without the use of a third system or special installations on PCs.

So with that in mind I'd like to be able to view these cubes from any computer that has an Internet explorer window.

Browser realignment

Howdy all,
I was curious, we have built a reporting services backend for DotNetNuke which displays reports in an IFRAME, but as you drill through the report the browser and iframe realign down to the top of the item clicked, here i show you,... This is before i click on a toggle item,...

Everything seems normal, browser and iframe all at the top,...
Then, as you can see the browser needlessly dives down the page, and the report rolls down as well,


Anyone know of a remedy for this, is there a property which can be set in RS or is it all in my frame configuration??
It is annoying enough for me to scroll back up, so i know the customer wont be jazzed about it either.
I thank in advance anyone for their help,...

Good Morning:

There may be a number of issues (postback's, IIS, etc.) and I have deployed DNN in a similar way to your above example. This "thread" from the DNN forum may lead you in a direction that may help.

file and received the message Undefined error. What gives?

following the sample program that came with Analysis
Manager.
