Database Class

Definition

Specifies an Analysis Services Tabular or Multidimensional database. This class cannot be inherited. Server mode and model type will determine whether you can subsequently create or modify the model tree. Specifically, if you call Tabular.Database, you can modify its model only when the model is Tabular at compatibility level 1200.
