Processing an OLAP cube with a T-SQL Stored Procedure

Here's a simple SQL Server stored procedure that you can call to process an OLAP cube using T-SQL.  The parameters should be self-explanatory.  To me, this is a little easier and more flexible than processing using DTS packages.

create procedure ProcessCube

    @Database varchar(100),

    @Cube varchar(100),

    @Partition varchar(100)  = null, -- If NULL, process the entire Cube

    @Server varchar(100) = 'localhost'

as
