Hi,

you can use attached table.

unzip file
create new drawing, set your assembly as drawing model
import table into drawing
save table as csv file
rename csv file - change csv extension to txt
open txt in Excel

I guess I was hoping there was a more modern solution in the analysis tool that I was missing.

I wish this software would improve...

Thanks by the way, that's the exact solution we came up with.

I know you can customize the Tools->Bill of Materials command that you use within Assembly Mode to show addtional attributes. Instead of writing to the browser I believe you can get this BOM report to save out to file when run.

Maybe others can comment on how to customize this report and if it can show volume info.
