Analysis Services - Step by Step: Errors related to feature availability and configuration

On page 56 of SQL Server 2005 Analysis Services Step by Step, I tried to DEPLOY the project, and it failed with this msg:

Errors related to feature availability and configuration: The 'Measure expressions' feature is not included in the 'Standard Edition' SKU.

Is it because of my Standard Edition? If it is, could I change the 'Measure expressions' some how to get by this msg and go on with the book?

Yes, you are running into this situation because you working against Standard edition of SQL Server Analysis Services.

You can install free trial edition from http://www.microsoft.com/sql/downloads/trial-software.mspx. It has full set of features for you to comlete any tutorial.

As for the steps described in the book, or how to work around them. You should point your questions to the authors of the book.

Thanks Edward. I'll try with the trial edition.

I was also trying to post the question to the authors, but I could not find the link to it.
