I should note first off that I have posted this questions elsewhere with no solution, here is a link to the original thread:

I have an OLAP cube that is tied to tables in our data warehouse. I am trying to create some reports that will allow the user to select certain variables in the summary sheet and manipulate the data that is shown. Because of the large amount of data I am not able to show all of the variables in the actual pivot table (Excel doesn't have enough resources to show the data.) So, what I have is data validation on the summary page where the user can select the store #, and I want that to update the OLAP cube.
I know that there is code out there to update regular pivot tables in Excel, but that seems to only work when the source data is housed in Excel, but not for OLAP cubes. The data that I have seen (http://www.contextures.com/excelfiles.html#Pivot) is like this:
I have tried this, but it doesn't update anything (hence the post here.) I went in and manually recorded me making a change, but I don't follow the syntax very well when it is dealing with the OLAP cubes, so I am not sure how I would change this to be similar to the code posted above:
Recorded Code:
The variable that I changed is the "Store Number", "5295" in this case. So, I have a list of all of the stores and I want the pivot to update based on the selection that the user makes in that dropdown.
Any help is appreciated.
