SYMPTOMS
You use the filter control and the cube browser against an instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services that has Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (SP2) installed. After you perform the filtering operation and the browsing operation, you experience the following problems:
