The Data Browser is the main tool for browsing and managing a Data Source. It is located on the left hand side of the main application window.
The selection box on top is used to set the visible Data Source. Clicking the <
> button will open up the list of all available Data Sources, allowing you to select the Data Source you wish to use.
The higher nodes in the Data Browser represent Dimensions. The icon next to the Dimension’s name indicates the type of Members it contains:
| Icon | Member Type |
| 
| Textual Members |
| 
| Numeric Members |
| 
| Date/Time Members |
| 
| Measures |
To expand a node, simply click on the <
> icon next to it, or double-click directly on it with the left mouse button.
|
Clicking on the < > button will hide the Data Browser, allowing for more space within the main work area. Once the Data Browser is hidden, click on the < > button to bring it back.

Right-clicking the selection box will bring up several other Data Source-related options.
