Drawing BOM’s from Instance

I have created a family table assembly for paint purposes. I then created a drawing for each instance and sent to checking. <?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" />


I received the drawings back with some necessary changes. I make the necessary changes and lo and behold, the paint isn't showing on my drawing BOM.<?:namespace prefix = v ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" />

Then I moved the items higher in the model tree and now they are visible in the tree, but still do not show up in my drawing repeat region. The frustrating thing about this is the fact that not all of the items that are not showing up on the BOM are in the family table.


Has anyone encountered this before and what, if any workarounds are there? I don't really want to create rows in the BOM that aren't driven.


Thanks in Advance,

Umm must be pretty brainless today. Forgot to check the Simplified Rep. before posting this. Somehow the items that weren't showing on the drawing BOM were excluded.


Not sure how this happened, I know I didn't do it.


Oh well, one of the many quirks of PRO/E.


Sorry for the bad post.
