Keeps asking for rpt file when executing store procedure

Question

Hi all,
  I have coded an standard stored procedure but when I execute it, Management Studio keeps asking for .rpt file to save the results. I am using Enterprise 2008 R2. 
This is the code:
USE [mydatabase]
GO
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_chart](
@parameters)
AS
BEGIN
 SET NOCOUNT ON;    
 DECLARE @query NVARCHAR(4000)
    DECLARE @total INT
    DECLARE @strDescriptor NVARCHAR(4000)
    DECLARE @dsvalues NVARCHAR(4000)
    DECLARE @strCache NVARCHAR(2000)
    SET @strDescriptor = dbo.udf_chart_derived_descriptor_intotemp(@derivation_Id)
 SET @dsvalues =  dbo.udf_chart_derived_dynamic_query_fortopn(  @derivation_Id,
       @cache_Id,
       @topn,
      @flt_customer_Id,
      @flt_user_Id,
      @flt_datefrom,
      @flt_dateto,
      @product_Id
    SET @strCache = 'SELECT top ' + @topn + 'PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id 
INTO #T_CacheTopN
FROM T_CacheSupp g 
WHERE g.Cache_Id = ' + @cache_Id + 
' ORDER BY g.Position'
    IF @strFilter is null 
     BEGIN
SET @query = @strCache + ';' + @strDescriptor + ';' +
'DECLARE @total INT;' +
@dsvalues +
'SELECT @total = COUNT(*)
 FROM #T_Condition; 
 SELECT c.Condition_Index, ROUND(COUNT(*)/CAST(@total as float),2)*100
 FROM #T_Condition c
 GROUP BY c.Condition_Index';
     END
    ELSE
     BEGIN
       DECLARE @sqlfilter NVARCHAR(2000)
  SET @sqlfilter =  dbo.udf_chart_dynamic_query_filter_fortopn(@strFilter,@product_Id,@topn, @cache_Id)
  SET @query = @strCache + ';' +@strDescriptor + ';' +
'DECLARE @total INT;' +
@dsvalues +
'SELECT @total = COUNT(*)
 FROM #T_Condition;'+ @sqlfilter +
 ';SELECT c.Condition_Index, ROUND(COUNT(*)/CAST(@total as float),2)*100 
 FROM #T_Condition c LEFT OUTER JOIN #T_NotWanted d
 ON c.Data_Id = d.Data_ID
 WHERE d.Data_Id is null
 GROUP BY c.Condition_Index';
     END 
    EXEC(@query)
    RETURN
END
When I execute:
DECLARE
@parameters NVARCHAR(4000)
execute usp_chart_derived_fortopn @parameters
it asks me for a .rpt file.
Why is that? I am not running a report.
Thanks

As other have said, you have set Results to File.
But since you posted your code, I had a look at it. I was not able to understand why you use dynamic SQL. For instance, this:
    SET @strCache = 'SELECT top ' + @topn + 'PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id 
INTO #T_CacheTopN
FROM T_CacheSupp g 
WHERE g.Cache_Id = ' + @cache_Id +  ' ORDER BY g.Position'
Can be written as
SELECT top (@topn) PERCENT g.Supplier_Id Supplier_Id 
INTO #T_CacheTopN
FROM T_CacheSupp g 
WHERE g.Cache_Id = @cache_Id  
ORDER BY g.Position
If you can avoid dynamic SQL, your code becomes easier to maintain, and less vulnerable for nasty surprises.
And if you use dynamic SQL, you should use sp_executesql and pass parameter values as parameters instead of inlining them.
