There is a dedicated "Export Bill of Materials" button on the top left of the BOM dialog. That is the one to export the BOM content to an Excel spreadsheet or csv file.</P> <P>What you are looking for is available in the Drawing environment. The command is called General Table, which can link to a spreadsheet.</P> <P>Many thanks!</P> Mon, 22 Jan 2024 21:19:07 GMT https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-forum/import-parts-list-from-exel-in-assembly/m-p/12514167#M28099 johnsonshiue 2024-01-22T21:19:07Z
