In some cases, when querying a SAS OLAP cube and either specifying a
non-existent or misspelled MDX function name, you may receive an access
violation on your SAS OLAP Server.

For example, the MDX query below that includes a misspelling of the MDX
function AddCalculatedMembers:

   SELECT AddCalculatedMember([cars].members) on columns
   from [mddbcars]

caused the following access violation as written in the SAS OLAP Server
log file:

   First-Chance Exception: SIGACCESS (Access Violation).
   EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (C0000005) read access at Address 00000000
