RE: Total weight in an assy

I've used two different methods and gotten two different results.  I used Physical Properties to get one value & then used Reports and gotten a different value.  Anybody know why these wouldn't agree?

RE: Total weight in an assy

Hi Lumpy,

this could be caused by some parts that don't have their material set. In Physical properties these parts get a 'standard' density. I assume this will not be so in reports.

Thanks Schipperus for this response and think that may be what is going on.

Thanks again,
Lumpy
