Simple iPart with a Not-So-Simple problem

I believe you are probably exceeding some max length for paths or filenames. I was able
to insert 4 or 5 different sizes without any problem when the file was on my desktop.

I would suggest adding a Filename column to the part and making it a lot shorter than the
default filename. The way you have it the child filenames are like this

10.25.XXXXXX Tox®Shoulder Die [Die_Length=50 mm][Button_Diameter=5 mm][Die_Depth=1.4
mm].ipt

Thanks a million for the help. The file name had too many chars in it. It works just fine now. I wanted to keep the file name as is so I just mapped a new network drive specifically for my library components and it shortened up the file name a ton.

I would still suggest adding a filename column to the spreadsheet. That way the bom will
come out right and you can control the filename length.
