A simple question about BOM

A simple question about BOM

A simple question about BOM

(OP)
I just made a drawing of a rather large assembly, and the BOM stretches into my Rev block! How do I resize it? Do I really have to modify the row height in excel to shrink it down, or is there a better way?

     Select you BOM and do a RMB and select properties. This should display the same data entry screen that you got when you inserted the bom. In the Control Tab there is a check box box labeled Split Tables into multiple sections – Check it and set the table height before splitting. – I normally use 11.0 – if your bom is on the right side of the drawing – select Left for a direction

Does this apply to 2004? I can't find the 'control' tab in the table properties.....

Thanks.
