Are the BOM of assly drawing and parts not associated

Are the BOM of assly drawing and parts not associated

(OP)
Hi,
I have a drawing file for an assemly. I have inserted a BOM that list all the various custom properties of the parts in the assly. Many of them are blank, because there as been no value entered in the part's custom properties.
I was expecting that when I fill in all the blanks on the assly BOM and save it, i should have all the custom properties updated with the values that I entered on the BOM.
It wont happen like that. The parts custom prop is still blank.

Are the BOM of assly drawing and parts not associated?

Regards
BMR

RE: Are the BOM of assly drawing and parts not associated

SolidWorks 2008: Yes.  Any other version: No.  You will need to right-click on the blank lines, choose "Open xxxx.sldprt", and update the custom properties in the part file.
