GMAT: If I registered but didn't go, what would it be like on the report?

I registered for a GMAT exam in Jan last year but wasn't able to go. How would it affect my GMAT report? I heard that if you go to the exam and cancel the score, then it won't show up on the report sent to B schools.

Does anyone know what it is gonna be like if not going at all (therefore can't even click cancel)?

Even if it did show up, schools really don't care about how many attempts you make now, they are much more concerned with the top score. I know people who had 3-4 attempts with low scores but were solid in other areas and schools just tell them to retake until they're in range and they'll get in. That includes M7. It's too hard for the schools to judge relatively to other cancelled scores now that the numbers aren't reported.
