BOM Tutorials

(OP)
I have to confess that I have never used the BOM function in SolidWorks other than to use one of the standard BOM templates.  I would now like to automate a custom BOM template for future work.  Does anyone know of any free tutorials that cover customizing a BOM template?  The help files are not very well organized in explaining the actual process and how to make and link custom properties and then to get them into a template.  A tutorial or a good book would really help an old timer like me.

TIA,

Timelord

I think that those of us that tout Matt's book should get a cut of the royalties, or at least a drink.
