Part Description in BOM

Part Description in BOM

Part Description in BOM

(OP)
I am kinda new to SW (using 2005 sp4). Creating a dwg from a asm and when I create the BOM in the dwg, I do not get any part descriptions. So when I went to enter them manualy, I got a warning msg about severing ties with the asm. So how can I get the the part descriptions? any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
