    SW2005 SP0.1

    It appears that an Excel based BOM will not bring in config specific
    properties if you have a flexible sub in an assy. If you make it rigid, the
    config specific Description comes in. If it's flexible, you get whatever is
    in the Description field of the Custom properties. Confirmation? (The new
    SW BOM appears to work properly.)

    This would explain the weird poo I experienced the other week with an
    assembly having several configs and 1 flexible sub assy (in a different
    position in each config).

    Confirmed. It's supposed to be fixed in sp1. Did you also notice that
    the balloon for the flexible subassembly shows *asterisks* instead of
    part #, qty, etc.?

    I didn't get far enough to see balloons - I was chasing the BOM field issue.
    I do remember the balloon thread, though and agree that they are probably
    related.

    Was this one resolved with 1.1?
