Hello all,
is there a free set of controls to be used for representing the OLAP cubes in aspx pages? something like the ones from Dundas, but free and (if possible) cross-browser.
Thanks, Lucian

A:
We coded a web OLAP viewer in-house (ASP/HTML/JavaScript) and it was incredibly complex, and took a long time. The users simply demanded more features.
There is a MS Office v10 plug-in or ActiveX control you can slap on a web page to view a cube....I think it will work over HTTP, but you're going to get grief somewhere along the way, sorry.

You're talking about Office Web Components which requires a valid Office license to use and only works in IE since it's an ActiveX component. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Web_Components

Currently we use JPivot which is actually Java and should be hosted inside an appserver, I'd suggest you search google a bit as there is bound to be an open source solution for what you want to do out there somewhere.
http://www.freedownloadmanager.org/downloads/olap_viewer_software/ might help (first hit for google "OLAP Viewers ASP")

The open source Ranet library might meet your needs. It uses Silverlight and is fully programmable. There are commercial licenses availalbe too if required.
