This is weird. What is your data source?

If your data source is analysis services then Measures folders will show as "Measure" icon. I think that what it is? I believe your dimensions icon looks like a regular table icon, correct?

    Hi parry2k. Thanks for your reply.

     

    In this particular case, for this table, the data source is an Excel document. Yes, the dimensions are shown with the standard table icon.

     

    It is really wierd, because when I just started this report, the initial icon was the known table icon, as ussual. Suddenly it changed to a measure icon. I don't really know why.

      Very interesting, would like to know what happened here?

       

      Do you have pivot table in excel?

        Hi parry2k. No, I do not have a pivot table. This same thing, just happened againt to an other table. I starting to think that maybe it has to do something with the count of mesasures that you have under that table. It's just a guessing.
