thank you Wim that's very helpful

And from what I can see from the code it should update the correct dimension.

I'll create a new process, thank you all once again

Hi david Im not trying to be argumentative here but what recreate setting, where in the process, e.g. tab are you referring to as i see it twice in the process. on the map> cube tab and on the maps > dimension tab in my process maps> cube - cube action set to - no action maps > dimension > action - ...

yes i did read davids response, did you not read mine? This isn't creating a cube its recreating a dimension and the setting on the map section in the process is set to 'recreate' not create If you could possible tell me what im doing wrong THAT would be helpful. Where do i tick recreate as the cube...

error message is

Error: prolog procedure line (3) : dimension "xxxx" is being used by a cube and cannot be deleted

hope that helps

thanks,
may be i wasn't clear enough on my explanation, sorry
but this isn't creating a cube its creating a dimension via the process and so

cube action =
no action

data action =
store values

the action on the dimension tab within maps is set to
'recreate'

thank you
