Oracle Data Downloaded to a Spreadsheet: This screen capture shows an Excel spreadsheet with data from the Global Units Cube displayed in a crosstab. A drop-down menu lists choices for Time, and 2003 is currently selected.

The columns of the crosstab contain these objects:

Column A: Product dimension: Hardware and Software/Other
Column B: Customer dimension: North America, Asia Pacific, and Europe
Column C: All Channels dimension and Sales measure
Column D: Sales Prior Period measure
Column E: Change Sales Prior Period measure
Column F: Percent Change Sales Prior Period measure

Drill symbols appear next to every dimension member. Excel by default rounds all numbers to the nearest whole number, so that the Percent Change measure displays only zeros and ones.
