BOM

BOM

(OP)
Is there a way to get a BOM from an assembly without creating a drawing and adding it there?

RE: BOM

You can get the associated iles under menu picks "File --> Find references...".  This won't give you full BOM info, but at least it will tell you what files are used.

There are two types of people in the world: the kind that believe that people can be categorized into one of two groups and the kind that don't.

RE: BOM

(OP)
This will give me a list of everything that is used (indented BOM).  It will include sub-assemblies and their parts.  What I am wanting is just the current assembly.

RE: BOM

Open the assembly in SolidWorks Explorer. Select the Show References button. The list on the right can be export to Excel.
