(OP)
I got a varialbe "area" in .par file (I keep there my number). And in dratf I got table with "area" of one part. Can I create variable 'area_samepart=area*quantity' and use it in BOM table?

RE: area (2)

Yes.

In the variable table, make sure your "area_samepart" variable is EXPOSED.  Give it a easy-to-use name and you should then be able to see this variable when the part is attached to the draft.  You can see it either through property text or through a column in the BOM.
