I think everyone would like that. :) If are just using them for cubes or something it should be pretty simple. If you are using them for something other than that, you shouldn't. Heck, even the Kimball group can't see to figure out what a Fact and Dimension are. What do they have now 30-40 different types of dimensions? Sad days indeed. |
