Hi,
Here are some suggestions:
Method1. Open the Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Modify the "Advanced" tab "Language for non-Unicode programs" to be in the SAME language as the one specified in the "Regional Options" tab
If method 1 is not worked, then try method2:
Method2. Naviagate to the location of the oledb driver. It should be in: C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB.
Check the entries in msmdsrv.log. You should see that it's complaining about a missing message manager. You should notice that the locale ID matches the value set in Control panel.
Now a workarround that I applied, without having to change the control panel was to copy the directory in .\resources\1033 (US english) to .\resources\4105 (Canadian English). This uses the US english entries until Microsoft releases the fix.
Note: remember, this would have to be done on every client PC, accessing ASIf both two methods cannot solve the issue, then try this:
Method3. Update the latest version of your Microsoft SQL Server.

Thanks Zhang,
Some points to be noted.
these steps are for win xp and I am using win 7. In Win 7 there are 3 program files
and non of them has msmdsrv.log file on the location you mentioned.
I checked the step 1 and the setting seems to be fine.Let me tell you one more thing that I am trying to connect a remote system for
olap cubes and this system is having windows xp with sql server 2005.we are upgrading our win xp with office 2003 to win 7 with office 2010. and the files
which i am trying to open is created in office 2003 and now i am trying to open in office 2010. -

Hi,
Try to download the OLAP PivotTable Extensions Release 0.7.4 to check the issue.
