Initially in SAS 9, the column name specification for a member property
on an axis rowset was returned from the SAS OLAP Server in the following
format:

   <dimension_name>.<member_property_name>

For example, if you wanted to retrieve the Education property in the
Customers dimension, the following column reference would be returned:

   [Customers].[Education]

Due to the potential for an ambiguous reference of a member property
where it could exist on more than one level within the dimension and to
conform with the OLE DB for OLAP specifications exactly, this has been
changed to allow the following column name specification to be returned:

   <level_name>.<member_property_name>

Each property now appears as a column in the axis rowset, whose name is
<level_name>.<property_name>, where <level_name> is the unique name of
the level to which the property belongs.

Now the following column name specification will be returned which
includes the dimension and level name the property is associated with to
reflect the unique name for the member property:

   [Customers].[Name].[Education]
