    If you have a template for your part files and you add this into a note it
    will insert the mass of your whatever part you insert as the first view.

    "SW-Mass@$PRPSHEET:"SW-File Name".SLDPRT"

    if you have a template for your assembly files add this note

    "SW-Mass@$PRPSHEET:"SW-File Name".SLDASM"

    Corey,

    You can also add parametric notes like this into a block - then every
    drawing that you add the block to will automatically update with the correct
    info. e.g. for part detail drawings I use a a block that includes Material
    type, cut size and mass.

    Merry :)
