I am badly stuck up with this problem!

I am running Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 and Business Intelligence Development Studio.

I am assigned a Analysis Project.

Now it so happens that I have an express edition and I know that Express edition does not have analysis services included in it.

So my question is How do I use Analysis services?

I have spent 2 days of my life searching for the downloads of analysis services. Can anyone do the trick for me?

    You will probably need SQL Server 2008 R2 Developer Edition. It's $49 direct http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/en_US/pd/productID.221634300 or $44 from buy.com http://www.buy.com/prod/microsoft-sql-server-2008-r2-developer-edition-complete-product-1-user/215778376.html – Aaron Bertrand Mar 06 '12 at 17:04

SQL Server Analysis Services is available only in Standard Edition, Enterprise Edition and Datacenter Edition. See Features Supported by the Editions of SQL Server 2008 R2. You will need to buy such an product. Evaluation versions are available but you cannot deploy them in production. Developer edition is also available for you to develop the solution, but in production you need to deploy a correctly licensed Standard or Enterprise edition.
