Drawing Views

I want to create a drawing view that sections the complete outer components but leave the internal components not sectioned. How do I do that?

On the view to be sectioned RMB on view and click "Show Contents". In the browser expand the tree for that view until you see a list of your models. RMB on the models you don't want to section and uncheck "Section".

That will only work if the parts are behind or
cross the section line.  Anything fully infront will not show up.  I
was told that that was the ansi standard for a section view.

I was considering this a "given". I've never had the need to create a view that broke this rule. Perhaps my assumptions are getting the best of me again.
