AMO and ProcessAdd for dimensions

Is there any way to process a dimension using ProcessAdd using AMO without using xmla? We currently have an app for SQL2000 that processes dimensions using DSO - ProcessUpdate that a colleague insists can just be changed to AMO - ProcessAdd but I am not getting the impression that it is as simple as that.

A quick yes or no would be great!

Thanks

Hi,

You can do it, but this only add the new records to your dimension.

If your dimension data has updated records they will not be updated in SSAS dimension.

Thanks for the response. However, I have read that link previously and the examples all show that xmla must be used. I was wondering something similar to this post:
