Linking a note to BOM [item #]
Linking a note to BOM [item #]
(OP)
Hi guys, I have a quick question.
I'm using Inventor2009 and I would like to know if there's a way to link data from one cell of the BOM table to a piece of text in a drawing?
I would like to be able to reference specific item numbers, which will update in the future should I reorder or add/subtract parts from the parts list.
Is this possible to do in Inventor?
Thanks

I would like someone to prove me wrong, because I have a drawing floating around somewhere that needs this done on it.

Just a thought.

This is not a standard function in IV 2008, and I've been told (by people that are paid to know) that it isn't possible to pull data from the 'structure' column of the BOM for use in the parts list, so... Special VB routine? Anyone?
