BOM export with template

 

I use this (similar) when I export my BOM list.
I want to export the BOM list "structured" with "All Levels".
How do I do this and use a template?
I like to use the iLogic.
Is it possible to "Expand All Children" in the parts list of DWG with a command from the iLogic.
If I export it from. iam then I can not use my own made template.

'-------------Start of ilogic ------------------------------------------------
'get the path and name of the drawing file
path_and_name = ThisDoc.PathAndFileName(False) ' without extension
 
'define oDoc
oDoc = ThisDoc.Document
 
'specify the drawing sheet
oSheet = oDoc.Sheets("Sheet:1") ' sheet by name
'oSheet = oDoc.Sheets(1) ' first sheet
 
 ' say there is a Partslist on the sheet.
oPartslist = oSheet.PartsLists(1)
     
' create a new NameValueMap object
oOptions = ThisApplication.TransientObjects.CreateNameValueMap
 
'specify an existing template file
'to use For formatting colors, fonts, etc
oOptions.Value("Template") = "C:\Temp\PartListExport.xls"

'specify the XLS tab name

oOptions.Value("TableName") = ThisDoc.FileName(False) 'without extension
 
'choose to include the parts list title row
'in this example "Ye Old List of Parts" is written to the StartingCell
oOptions.Value("IncludeTitle") = True          
 
'choose to autofit the column width in the xls file
oOptions.Value("AutoFitColumnWidth") = True
