#### Warnings

The Warnings button displays the Warnings Display Options dialog box.

If you need information on specific warnings, consult the “Warn(Option)” topic in the “Options” chapter of the PC-DMIS Settings Editor documentation.

Important: In order to better support the ability to turn off warnings in version 4.0 and above, warning messages will only appear in the Warnings Display Options dialog box once you have turned them off. If no warnings have been turned off the dialog box will be empty.

Warnings Display Options dialog box

This dialog box allows you to tell PC-DMIS to re-display warnings that you have already switched off as well as change the default actions for warning messages that are turned off. By default, this dialog box is empty. When a warning message appears, PC-DMIS gives you the option of not receiving that warning again. When you choose to not receive the warning, the warning ends up in this dialog box.

To start receiving a warning message again:

1. Access the Setup Options dialog box (Edit | Preferences | Setup).

2. Select the General tab.

3. Click the Warnings button. The Warnings Display Options dialog box will open. It will show any warnings you have turned off.

4. Select the warning in the dialog box.

5. Clear its check box.

6. Click OK. The warning is removed from the dialog box and you will start receiving that warning message again.

The Clear List button clears all the check boxes for all items in this dialog box, thereby returning PC-DMIS to its default mode of displaying all the warning messages.

To change the default action for a warning message:

1. Make sure you have clicked the Don't ask me again check box when the warning appears. This causes it to go to the Warnings Display Options dialog box.

2. Access the Setup Options dialog box

3. Select the General tab.

4. Click the Warnings button. The Warnings Display Options dialog box will open. It will show any warnings you do not want to display.

5. Double-click on the warning message whose default action you want to change. PC-DMIS displays the warning, allowing you to select the new default action.

6. Select the new default action. The list will now be updated with the new action.

7. Click the OK button to save your choice.
