Remarks

A set is an ordered collection of zero or more tuples. A set is most commonly used to define axes in a multidimensional query. Like tuples, sets also have dimensionality. Because a set is composed of tuples, the dimensionality of a set is expressed by the dimensionality of each tuple within it. Therefore, tuples within a set must have the same dimensionality.

In ADOMD.NET, the Set class encapsulates the basic information used to define a set. The Set class is used primarily to represent an axis within the Axes collection of a CellSet. The dimensionality of a set is represented by the Hierarchies collection within the Set class, which identifies the nesting order of hierarchies within a given axis for a CellSet.

Thread Safety

Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
