Remarks

A MeasureGroup is bound to a table in a data source view; and each measure is bound to a column in that table. Finally, each measure group dimension has a set of 'granularity attributes', which define the granularity of the MeasureGroup.

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.
