    dangerous BOM issue

    Group,
    Had a interesting, but dangerous effect today:
    created part 1
    created part 2 (similar to part 1)
    created idw off part 1
    did a save copy as
    opened saved copy of idw, deleted views of part 1, inserted views of part 2
    edited some manual partslist entries and titleblock entries
    So, now I have the views showing part 2, but the BOM reflecting (partially)
    part 1.
    You now tell me, I shouldn't do this? Then, I tell you, why doesn't IV
    delete the BOM when the last view is deleted? (like all dims and annotations
    and balloons get deleted)???????

    Regards,
