How to concatenate Member_caption in different level using mdx

Question

hi I am using the mdx below to get the list of ParameterCaption which will be used to populate a dropdown list inside SSRS
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterCaption]  AS [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.MEMBER_CAPTION
MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterValue] AS  [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.UNIQUENAME
MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel] AS [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[ParameterCaption], [Measures].[ParameterValue], [Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON COLUMNS , 
[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].ALLMEMBERS on ROWS
FROM [OrderCube]
The result is below:
ParameterCaption      ParameterValue
ParameterLevel
All [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[All]
0
2008 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Year].&[2008]
1
23 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].&[23]&[2008]
2
24 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].&[24]&[2008]
2
25 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].&[25]&[2008]
2
26 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].&[26]&[2008]
2
27 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].&[27]&[2008]
2
28 [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].&[28]&[2008]
2
1. What I wanna do is to remove ALL from the ParameterCaption
2. I want to concatenate Year to Week so that dropdown list will show 200823 instead of 23 for the week 23 in 2008. Notice
that Year and week are in different Parameter Level...  
3. After concatenation, I only want to show ParameterCaption with ParameterLevel = 2 in the dropdownlist.
Any ideas? thanks

Hi Cat_ca,
In your query, you use [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].ALLMEMBERS on ROWS which will return all levels members, so you get All level. In order to remove All and only show Parameter Caption with Parameter Level = 2 in the dropdown-list, you can use the query [Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week
Of Year].MEMBERS
Besides, you want to concatenate Year to Week so that dropdown list will show 200823 instead of 23 for the week 23 in 2008, then you can use the calculation like below.WITH MEMBER [Measures].[YearWeek]
AS
[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.PARENT.NAME+[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.NAME
So in your scenario, please try the query below.
WITH MEMBER [Measures].[YearWeek]
AS
[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.PARENT.NAME+[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.NAME
MEMBER [Measures].[ParameterLevel]
AS
[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].CURRENTMEMBER.LEVEL.ORDINAL
SELECT {[Measures].[YearWeek],[Measures].[ParameterLevel]} ON 0,
[Checkoutdate].[Year-Week].[Week Of Year].MEMBERS ON 1
FROM
[OrderCube]
Hope this helps.
