data mining

well, i;m doing a thesis about data mining right now.And i found some difficulties. In my thesis i use visual basic 6.0 and sql server 2000 database and sql server 2000 analysis service. For information i use DSO (Decision Support Objects in programming). I've read claude seidmann book about data mining and i really help with that book. But i still have some questions about data mining using DSO :
1. I have made a relational mining model using VB. I've created the code based on Claude Seidman book. well it's process well. But when i want to browse the result in analysis manager there's an error message ;

"Unable to browse the mining model, object or provider is not capable of performing requested operation"
I really don't understand with this error message. Could you tell me what's the meaning of this error message?


2. shoud i make another code in VB to browse the result ?

3. I still don't understand about Microsoft decision tree algorithm works.So could you tell me how microsoft decision tree wroks?

Thank you so much for your attention and i really appreciate with your help.Thank you

Here is some information on Decision Trees algorithm from SQL SERVER 2005 perspective.

HTH..

To do a data mining project, may I recommend using Sql server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005? You could download free trial versions from Microsoft site.

It's likely that some of the client components in your Analysis Services 2000 install are not registered correctly. Re-installing the latest service pack (SP4) should fix the problem you're seeing.

Zulfiqar's reply has valid suggestions about trying SQL Server 2005 Data Mining if you're starting a new data mining project and checking the SQL 2005 Books Online for information about the decision trees algorithm. More in-depth information about the algorithm can be found in the research papers accessible from this tip: http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/DMCommunity/TipsNTricks/986.aspx
