Question

SELECT 
NON EMPTY {[Measures].[Page Views]} ON COLUMNS,
NON EMPTY {
    Crossjoin({[Date Dim.Weekday Hierarchy].[Weekday].Members}, 
              {[Time Dimension.Time Hierarchy].[Hour].Members})
          } ON ROWS
FROM [All Facts]

Is code to get the page views per weekday. It currently returns data like this:

Sunday
……0 – 198273
……1 – 123987
……2 – 128372
……3 – 1283712

for each hour, for each day.
How do I get this to concatenate the strings from the crossjoin, so that it returns:

Sunday 0 – 198273
Sunday 1 – 123987
Sunday 2 – 128372
Sunday 3 – 1283712

Or must this be created as a totally new measure?

Found a solution:

> WITH MEMBER [Measures].[pretty hour] AS [Date Dim.Weekday Hierarchy].[Weekday].CurrentMember.name || " " || [Time Dimension.Time Hierarchy].[Hour].CurrentMember.name 
>   SELECT    
>   NON EMPTY {[Measures].[pretty hour], [Measures].[Page Views]} ON COLUMNS,   
>   NON EMPTY {    
>       Crossjoin({[Date Dim.Weekday Hierarchy].[Weekday].Members},     
>                 {[Time Dimension.Time Hierarchy].[Hour].Members})   
>             } ON ROWS   
>FROM [All Facts]

You have to ignore the row headers, but it produces the result I wanted! 🙂 @icCube had the right-ish idea, just Mondrian needed || instead of +, and “CurrentMember.name” instead of just “name”
