Deleting Group or User - Verification

[R7Dave]

Hello

I have been asked to allow only certain users to see my report in report services.

I thought the best way to do this would be to create a new folder, select the Properties tab | Security | check the groups that I don't want to see the report | Click Delete | click OK for "Are you sure you want to delete this item?"

This doesn't delect the "Group or User", right? It just deletes the roles access to the folder - is this correct?

Our admin is not available and I was hoping I could complete this on my own - thank you for your help.

If you delete a user off of the report server interface, it does not delete the user or group off of the database. It just takes away their right to see that particular folder/report. Is that what you were asking?

Yes - that was it exactly - I thought that was the case but wanted to make sure - thanks again
