Answer / vij

Drill down and Drill up is possible only if you have
Dimensional data .
In dimensional data there are 1 or more than one levels in
one dimension.
in that when u drill down for a perticular dimension then
it will show u the level below that main level.like from
summarised data to detaild data.
and for drill up viceversa.

Thanks
