    Does anyone have a macro or method to create a BOM or basically a make
    from on a part drawing. I want to show all inserted parts (bodies) in a
    BOM like format on a part drawing. And have it auto update if bodies
    are added or removed.

    I did find one that allowed you to enter in properties to fill out the
    BOM as you can put a normal BOM on a part's drawing. But this is a
    manual method, I would really like an auto one.

    Just thought I would ask before I started one myself. We also use a PDM
    (DBWorks) and I might find it easier to just get the data from there as
    it already does know about the sub-parts (or made from list).
