Note
This feature will be removed in the next version of Microsoft SQL Server. Do not use this feature in new development work, and modify applications that currently use this feature as soon as possible.
The Name property of the Dimension interface contains the name of a dimension object.
Applies To:clsAggregationDimension, clsCubeDimension, clsDatabaseDimension, clsPartitionDimension
Data Type
String
Access

Remarks
The primary mechanism for identifying the data in a dimension is the Name property. The purpose of the Description property is to provide additional descriptive information.
Example
Use the following code to print the names of the dimensions in a database:
'Assume an object (dsoDB) of ClassType clsDatabase exists.
Dim dsoDim As DSO.Dimension
Dim dimCounter As Integer
For dimCounter = 1 To dsoDB.Dimensions.Count
Set dsoDim = dsoDB.Dimensions(dimCounter)
Debug.Print dsoDim.Name
Next dimCounter
