Displaying User-defined Part Params in Assembly BOM

Displaying User-defined Part Params in Assembly BOM

Displaying User-defined Part Params in Assembly BOM

(OP)
I am just getting into creating assembly drawings and BOM's in ProE (Wildfire 2.0), it has been slow going. Trying to figure out how to display the material name for each part in my repeat box. I am storing material name in a user-defined param "MATL", which is loaded from the assigned material via the Relations box: 'MATL=MATERIAL_PARAM("CONDITION") ' I want this MATL parameter for each part to show up in the repeat box, not sure how to do it.

I am new to this, so if anyone knows a better way of doing any of this, I'm interested. Also, if there's a good online resource that explains all the functionalities related to this.

Thx,
Will

Hi Will

You have to set up your table and add the following to be report sym, then search thru all the types to find asm, mbr and user defined type matl.  The final result should look like this "&asm.mbr.matl"
