Displaying, hiding, or modifying a header

Headers display measure and level names at the tops of columns, as shown in Figure 2-8. Menu commands support hiding these headers.

The text string that appears in a header is the level or measures name for the cube, which appears in the data pane. Data Analyzer supports changing the text that appears in a header.
