I have had a number of emails in the last week asking for a list of the SQL Server Analysis Services features that we support,
Microsoft Office Professional 2010, asking for a list of the SQL Server Analysis Services features that are new in their 2005 release,
Office 2007 License, etc.,
Office Pro Plus 2010, so here is a list that hopefully answers folks’ questions. Specifically,
Microsoft Office Ultimate 2007, here are the major features available in SQL Server Analysis Services that Excel 12 supports. “New in AS2005” means the some or all of the feature is new to SQL Server Analysis Services 2005.
