BOM Balloons

(OP)
Greetings,
Just a quick question, anyone created a script that would allow automatic BOM ballon placement on a drawing without having created the table repeat region?
My company has decided to do away with BOM tables on drawings and rely on 3rd party software (dont ask.....) to match up the index and qty elements normally found on the bom balloon. I need to create a function that will populate the drawing view with baloons that show index and qty without having the table on the drawing!?
Thanks!

RE: BOM Balloons

Move the table off page.  It will still be there, but just won't print.

....or put your table on a layer and hide it.
