Remarks

Because measures are essentially a specialized form of member, measures are subject to the same issues regarding member names and member keys as members.

Member names can be derived from a column in the dimension table other than the column that supplies member keys for a given level. Although member keys must be unique within the scope of a level, member names can be changed in a changing dimension and are not necessarily unique within a dimension or hierarchy. You can reference a member either by its member name or its unique name. Using the unique name ensures precise member identification in these cases.

The Name property returns the member name of the Measure. To get the unique name of a Measure, use the UniqueName property.
