Re: Does MOLAP have any relational tables?

I don't believe so.
MOLAP engines typically satisfy OLAP queries from 
an extraction of data into a non-relational repository.
That repository would most likely be a proprietory
implementation of a C-ISAM structured file.
The MOLAP repository (eg Cognos PowerCube) is
periodically refreshed from relational source data.
