I downloaded the Beta of ADOMD.Net, and I had a very basic question -
Is there any way to combine ADOMD.NEt with the XMLA Web Service? It
seems like the AdomdConnection requires a local network connection.
What if you want to get data from across the Web through the XMLA Web
Service?

Is there a way to make a web service type connection? Or,
alternately, can I load an AdomdCellset from the XML I get back from
calling Execute on the XMLA service?

I want the ability to get my data from an xmla web service (anywhere),
but the programming model of the adomd.net Cellset. I hope this is
possible.

thanks,
Backslider

Nevermind. I found some examples. The help doesn't seem to mention it, but
I found other newsgroup postings where people were using connection strings
like : DataSource='http:/localhost/xmla/msxisapi.dll' . That is what I was
looking for.
