Hope this isnt a repost, at least I didnt find any results that I was happy with on google.

The thing is I don't know much about OLAP connections but I'm decent when it comes to SQL requests but I would like to further my skills

What site, book - would you recommend

Answer 1

MSDN has a set of basic tutorials that will help you install/browse a sample OLAP environment.

These highlight the different areas in an SSAS project.

In terms of querying (MDX) you can look at the SQL Server Central - Stairway to MDX series of articles:
