    Without using Excel, is there a way to calculate the total weight of an item
    based on its quantity in an assembly.

    TIA

    You can also use the solidworks Bom to do you just need to select the
    template bom-weight. But be careful if you different units SW will report
    whatever units the item was made in. You can also use Mass properties in the
    Assembly

    Cheers

    Thanks for the tip, but can I also get SW to calculate the "total weight".
    ie if part 1 weighs 3 lbs and there's qty 12, total weight = 36???

    Thanks again.
