I would like to NOT show the 'loading' popup when the report refreshes because this is displayed on several monitors and it catches viewers' attention. Report is deployed to a SQL report server. Is there a way to achieve this?

  • PS - only tag the version you are using and only if it is relevant to the question. – Dale K Feb 17 '19 at 22:24
  • You could cache your dataset and refresh your report from the cache... this way the report will refresh instantly and shouldn't get the loading / refreshing screen – Harry Feb 18 '19 at 20:43
  • Can I do that for a refresh that happens every few seconds? Thanks This is what I am looking for but not sure how to implement it. Here : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3323694/ssrs-reportviewer-web-control-how-to-not-show-the-waitcontrol-at-all-when-re – Naol Feb 18 '19 at 21:01

If you have an ASP.NET developer on hand, have them use the ReportViewer control to embed the report directly into a plain old aspx page. I've done this to a few reports, and they never show the usual "Report is being generated" message that you get when accessing them via Report Manager. (You might have to set AsyncRendering="False" on the ReportViewer control to get the desired behavior.)

This will also allow you to dress up the page a bit, and conceal the various Reporting Services toolbars, which would be ideal for a billboard display like you describe. Put a meta refresh in the page to get a 30-second refresh, and you're set.
