Can anyone help me with creating a BOM where the components sizes share the same column with catolog numbers of purchased components. This format would be typical win the mold design world.





Thanks

Why the same column as opposed to adjacent columns?


Here's on e of the formats I use.

Thank you for the relpy.


I wanted to keep the same look as our company XL format.


IfI have to go to seperate columns then I guess I'll do it, but I want to


exhaust all possibilities for the first option.


And of course, thisisn't a problem with Solidworks.


I guess that's something else Pro-E needs to improve apon.

Is this what you are looking for?

If so it's really easy to do. Your repeat regoin just needs to look for multiple parameters. In this case the last column reads:


&asm.mbr.supplier&asm.mbr.dia&asm.mbr.he &asm.mbr.x &asm.mbr.w &asm.mbr.x &asm.mbr.le


The "dia", "he", "x", "w", & "le" are just to get the steel sizes into that column. You would obviously need to adjust this to pull in your specific part parameters.


Hope this helps!
