I think I found a bug in SW2006 sp3.1. 1. Take an assembly, and create a drawing (insert at least one view) 2. Make an Excel-based BOM for that assembly. 3. File-->Save As--> DWG (AutoCAD) format. Now, does it completely perform the SaveAs, or does it hang when it tries to open the embedded BOM (not sure why)?
I'm experiencing the same thing with the SaveAs problem - it's like SW will open the embedded spreadsheet, then won't exit it to complete the process. I can finish it manually by simply clicking outside the spreadsheet region, but this is not a solution for me since this is being done with a macro.
