Var
    mb:IMetabase;
    diminst:IDimInstance;
    sel,sel_gr:IDimSelection;
    creator: IDimHierarchyCreator;
    ar: Array Of integer;
    h_inst:IDimHierarchyInstance;
Begin
    // Get repository
    mb:=metabaseclass.Active;
    // Open dictionary
    diminst:=mb.ItemById("DIC").Open(Null) As IDimInstance;
    // Get selection
    sel:=diminst.CreateSelection;
    sel.SelectElement(1, False);
    sel.SelectElement(2, False);
    // Display selected elements
    debug.WriteLine(sel.ToString);
    // Create a dynamically alternative hierarchy
    creator := New DimHierarchyCreator.Create;
    // Create an array, where place the attribute key, by which grouping is executed
    ar:= New integer[1];
    ar[0]:=1;
    creator.Selection := sel;
   // Send attribute, by which grouping is executed
    creator.Attributes:=ar;
    // Get grouping dimension
    h_inst:=creator.HierarchyInstance;
    sel_gr:=h_inst.Source.CreateSelection;
    sel_gr.SelectAll;
    // Display all elements of grouping hierarchy
    debug.WriteLine(sel_gr.ToString);
End Sub UserProc;

After executing the example, the console displays all elements of alternative hierarchy with value of the attribute by which grouping is executed.
