Remarks

When a client application sets the AxisFormat property to TupleFormat, an axis is represented as a set of tuples. Each Axis element contains a Tuples element representing the set of tuples on that axis. Each tuple is represented by using a Tuple element that contains Member elements from every hierarchy on the axis.

Example

The following example illustrates the structure of the Tuple element when a client specifies TupleFormat or CustomFormat for the AxisFormat XMLA property, given the following members for the axis:

<Axes>
   <Axis name="Axis0">
      <Tuples>
         <Tuple>
            <Member Hierarchy="Time">
               <UName>[Time].[1999]</UName>
               ...
            </Member>
            <Member Hierarchy="Category">
               <UName>[Scenario].[Actual]</UName>
               ...
            </Member>
         </Tuple>
         <Tuple>
            <Member Hierarchy="Time">
               <UName>[Time].[1999]</UName>
               ...
            </Member>
            <Member Hierarchy="Category">
               <UName>[Scenario].[Budget]</UName>
               ...
            </Member>
         </Tuple>
         <Tuple>
            <Member Hierarchy="Time">
               <UName>[Time].[2000]</UName>
               ...
            </Member>
            <Member Hierarchy="Category">
               <UName>[Scenario].[Budget]</UName>
               ...
            </Member>
         </Tuple>
      </Tuples>
   </Axis>
   ...
</Axes>
