I know i've done this before, but now i am having issues when i try to add a revision column. First i add a column to my bom table. Then i double click the top of the column to bring up the list boxes and select CUSTOM PROPERTY in the top one. Then all the custom properties should be available in the lower box, right? Well, now all i am getting is SWElbowAngle and SWPipeLength, neither of which i have ever used on any part. Where are the other properties?

Open the assy and components the BOM is referencing and check which properties are listed in each.
