To set the update option

1.

On the File menu, click Options.

The Options dialog box appears.

2.

Click the Reporting tab.

3.

Select the Update Connected Repository Objects on Open check box.

4.

Click OK.

If you don't want to use this global option, you can also update a report's
repository objects by selecting the Update Repository Objects option on the
Open dialog box for an individual report.

Note:

When you open a report that contains a command that is stored in the
repository, and you have specified that you want to Update Connected
Repository Objects on Open, only the definition of the command is
automatically refreshed; the data that the command returns is not updated
until you click the Refresh button in the report.

Deleting items from the repository

Any object you store in the repository can be deleted from that repository
without removing it from the reports that use it. Once you remove an object
from the repository, it is removed for all users.

Note:

When you delete an object from the repository, it appears to remain
connected in the reports that use it. When you try to update repository
objects for those reports, a warning message is shown in the Missing
Repository Items dialog box so you can quickly identify the object. Use
the Report Explorer dialog box to find the object in the report; then you
can disconnect it.

If you have deleted an object from the repository, creating a new object
with the same name and adding it back to the repository does not relink
that object to your reports. Each repository object has a unique ID; linking
is not done by name.
