Abstract
It is proved that Sommerfeld's resolution of \Pi, \Pi=(\Pi_{x},0,\Pi_{z}) for the x directed dipole source in the classical dipole problem is not unique and is just one of four acceptable resolutions. A method is shown for analytically obtaining one such acceptable resolution, namely, \Pi=(\Pi_{x},\Pi_{y},0) . With this resolution, the geometrical optics results for the dipole problem are obtained.
