Output Inspection Dimentions To a Form or File???

Output Inspection Dimentions To a Form or File???

(OP)
Good afternoon folks, sense you are some of the most knowledgeable people I know on the subject of Solidworks, I have a really tough question I need an answer for.   We did this 20 years ago with a Bravo system on a Mac and I hope we can do it with SW as well.  Here is what we want to know if SW can do.  We use the "Inspection Dimensions" in all of our manufactured parts drawings and we would like to be able to output to either a file or a form all of the inspected dimensions, is this something that SW can do?  Basically we are just trying to automate the creation and generation of inspection sheet of the shop floor.  Well, did I make myself clear with my discription of what I am trying to do?  Thanks for the help, it is appreciated.

Thanks for the response handleman it sounds like maybe what I am looking for, but everytime I tried to open the attacments, IE would tell me it could not diplay the webpage.  So I can't look at the macro mentioned in the thread.  Any suggestions here?  Thanks again.

thanks, I will look into downloading Firefox some time when i have some extra time to download it and install it and then unintall it.  I really don't need nor want two browsers in one computer.  This is the first time I have had any problem with IE, go figure.  Thanks any way.
