We are introducing office web components to query an OLAP
data cube via EXCEL and ASP.NET, but on some machines this doesn't work. Ive
tracked this back to
an excel issue. If I go into excel and click Data, external
data and new database query, then I choose OLAP Cubes, double click on new
data source, put in a name and click the drop down box to specifiy an OLAP
provider. On the machines that fail this box is blank. On all the machines
that work the box gives me at least one option to provide a OLAP
Provider i.e (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for OLAP Services 8.0). I've
searched the web high and low and can't find anyone with the
same issue yet I've found this on 2 out of 5 machines in a test group.

Please advise
If you can tell me a way to add in this functionality then I think this will
fix the issue.

Thanks
