Question

Hi everybody, I need some help in creating a measure in MDX.
My customer dimension looks like that:
|-State
|---City
|-----Street
|--------Street number
|-----------Customer
So for example
|-Saxony
|-Bavaria
|---Munich
|-----Example-Street
|-------1
|-----------Customer A
|-------2
|-----------Customer B
|-----------Customer C
|-------3
|-----------Customer D
Now I'd like to create a measure, that gives me to every level the amount of customers, for example '4' for Munich (and something like 10 for Bavaria).
I read about the count function but can't seem to make it work properly. Could somebody tell my how to implement this feature? :)
Regards and best wishes,
Sonnfan

The following definition should work.
CREATE MEMBER CurrentCube.[Measures].[CustomerCount] AS COUNT(Descendants( [Customer].[Hierarchy].CurrentMember, [Customer].[Hierarchy].[Customer] ) )

Hey, thanks for your suggestion. I was able to solve the Problem with the following code:
with member [Measures].[Amount] as 'sum(descendants([Customer].currentmember, [Customer].[Name]),1) '
