Data Type

Access

Remarks

The OrdinalPosition property for a level determines the relative position of the level in the dimension hierarchy: A value of 1 defines the most aggregated level, and the maximum value defines the most detailed level. Decision Support Objects (DSO) sets the value of this property when you add the level to a dimension.

The following table shows an example of relative ordinal positions.

Level	Ordinal position
All	1
Yearly	2
Quarterly	3
Weekly	4
Daily	5

Example

Use the following code to return the ordinal position of a level object:

' Assume an object (dsoLev) of ClassType clsLevel exists
If dsoLev.OrdinalPosition = 1 Then
  'Code to handle top level
Else
  'Code to handle remaining levels
End If
