I'm using AS 2005, I'm trying to create a cube using the wizard and AS
2005 is detecting my Dimension tables as being fact tables and when I
try to switch them to Dim table, it will not let me go further. Does
anyone know how to get through this? These are reference tables and
they do not link directly to a fact table.

You need to set up realtionships correctly for this to work properly. Many
on the fact side, one on the dim side...
