Hello Alessandro,

I understand that you'd like to specify an dimension attribute as a
property not to be aggregated. If I'm off-base, please let me know.

You may want to consider define attribute relationship bewteen attribute
name and address, thus you could display address as member property of name
and do not necessary to drag name attribute to the browser which cause more
calculations and overhead even if they are 1:1 relationship. When you drag
a dimension attribute into the browser it is used as normal attribute
anyway though at running time, it will gain performance improvement when
engine may find it has 1:1 relationship with another attribute.

By default, dimension attribute are related to key dimension attribute by a
attribute relationship. In VS 2005, you could open the dimension in VS
project, and check the attribute relationships defined on the key attribute
( I assume it is "id" in the dimension).

You may want to create a attribute relationship directly on name attribute
and define the relationship bweteen name and address. You will be able to
see address as the member property of the name attribute in browser. You
could right click the a name cell->Show properties in report->Show All
properties in report.

The other option that you could display name/address at the same time ( I
assume it is 1:1 relationship) is that you create a new column on dimension
source table, and merge (name, address) column to a new column such as
name-address. You could use this new column as a attribute directly in the
dimension attribute.

If you have further questions or concerns on the issue, please feel free to
let's know. Than you.
