i am trying to get the data by simple MDX query like following
Select [location][city].members on columns, [measure][count] on rows Note:(query not same but like this sample)
But the in the results it is giving one blank value along with city value. how to avoid that blank value.
- 80
- Delhi 90
- bangalore 60
- chennai 70
Here what is the 80 value. its belongs to any city value? please let me know how to avoid those empty box?
Regards,
Madhu.

Hi Madhu Mi
The value is probably related to NULL's or an empty string in your dimension. The question is what you want from the display - do you care about the 80 value or not?
If not you could simply change the query to be EXCEPT([Location].[City].[], [Location].[City].[City]) On Rows

Hello Madhu,
You can try to use Non Empry within the MDX statement. Here are some related articles for your reference, please see:
