The query contains the XXXXXName parameter, which is not declared. SSRS2008/MDX query

Question

Parser: The query contains the XXXXXName parameter, which is not declared. (msmgdsrv)

I have no idea why I keep getting this error. It occurs when I change the MDX in the query designer and trying OKing out of the query designer.

The strange thing is that the parameter DOES exist, I can see it in the parameters section of the dataset dialog. I am creating it before I do anything else with the query.

Answer 1

Is the parameter defined at the report level? That might be what's missing.

Answer 2

The problem appears to relate to the poor way in which the query designer handles changes to different cubes.

I ended up having to hack around with the xml file to fix the problem
