An externally-created dimension describes a logical hierarchy of a data set; however, the dimension hierarchy is transformed from its source format to Guided Search compatible XML outside of Developer Studio.

The logical hierarchy of an externally-created dimension must conform to the Guided Search external interface for describing a data hierarchy (found in external_dimensions.dtd) before you import the dimension into your project. As soon as you import an externally-created dimension, its ownership is transferred to Developer Studio, so that afterwards you can modify the dimension with Developer Studio.
