Error while exporting cwm2 cube

Question

Hello, I've created some dimensions and cubes using cwm2 packages. I want to make backup of the creation scripts, using CWM2_OLAP_EXPORT utility (EXPORT_CUBE method). My database version is 10g r. 2 (10.2.0.1.0).
I've exported some cubes successfully, but in others, the next error appears and the script is not generated:
ORA-06502: character string buffer too small.
I've noticed that it appears with big cubes (those dimensioned by a high number of dimensions, 20 or greater).
Is this a bug ? What can I export these cubes ? Thanks a lot by your help.

Hi Indra19,
According to your description, you are creating a offline cube in Excel, and encounter the error
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Analysis services 2005:

An offline cube file (.cub) stores data in the form of an Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) cube. This data may represent a portion of an OLAP database from an OLAP server or it may have been created independently of any OLAP database. In your scenario,
