Unsuppress Run Custom Report Warnings

  • Article

There are two warning dialog boxes for custom reports. This topic describes how to unsuppress the display of these boxes in SQL Server 2014 by using SQL Server Management Studio.

By default, the Run Custom Reports dialog box appears before a custom report runs. If you select the Please don't show this warning again check box, the dialog box will no longer appear. Also by default, the Run Custom Reports dialog box appears when you open a custom report and then click a link to open another custom report. This dialog box displays the fill path to the drill-through custom report file. If you select the Please don't show this warning again check box, the dialog box will no longer appear.
