Mark,
You can always add it to the $CDS_SITE/cdssetup/projmgr/site.cpm file (if you have one) and it will be inherited by all projects at your site. Do you have a CDS_SITE?

    Ok, Thanks Charlie.
    I guess I have to do that on every project I am working on along
    with the rest of our group.
    Just kind of irritating that there is no way to ignore / disable
    the expand function if you do not need it.

    Thanks again,
    Mark

Mark,
If you add what I suggested to the Concept section of the cpm
file, you should not be prompted to expand the design. It will
expand automatically (you won't be prompted). It needs to expand
in order to cross reference, but it only needs to expand once per
session.
Hope this helps.

        Julian and Charlie,
        Thanks for your reply.
        So you are not aware of a way to NOT have Concept ask to
        expand after hiliting in Allegro?

        Usually, if I am simply hiliting / dehiliting things in
        Allegro, I do not want to expand my schematic.
        I just want it to quit asking me and creating a pop-up in
        Concept for EVERY hilite I do in the board.
        Very annoying to hit (NO or X)  50 times if you have hilited
        50 nets in the board.

        This is all I have in my cpm file under Concept.

        START_CONCEPTHDL
        LOGIC_GRID_TOGGLE 'OFF'
        SYMBOL_GRID_TOGGLE 'OFF'
        DOC_GRID_TOGGLE 'OFF'
        CLICK_TO_TYPE 'OFF'
        PLOT_FIT_TO_PAGE 'ON'
        PAPER_SIZE '135'
        PAPER_ORIENTATION '2'
        PAPER_SOURCE '15'
        WPLOTTER_NAME 'Adobe PDF'
        TAP_ADD_SIGNAL 'ON'
        END_CONCEPTHDL

        Regards,
        Mark

I am also interested in this fix.
One comment though: wouldn't you have to wait forever before
all the nets are expanded?
Just curious.

Mark,
In the concept section of the cpm file set the following:
EXPAND_BEFORE_GLOBAL_NAVIGATE 'YES'
The default value is 'PROMPT'

            Hello all,
            Using Concept and Allegro, when I hilite a net in
            Allegro, I get the following irritating message in concept.
            One message for everything I hilite and I have to click
            NO or (X) on every one of them. This must be done before
            doing anything else in the schematic.

            Pop-up Message reads:
            Do you want to expand to see the net in the entire design?

            Any ideas?

            Thanks,
            Mark
