Sub test()

Set oAss = ThisApplication.ActiveDocument
Set oBOM = oAss.ComponentDefinition.BOM

'Define file name to export current BOM config
BOM_tempo = Environ("temp") & "\BOM_tempo.xml"

'if existing file, delete it
On Error Resume Next
Kill BOM_tempo
On Error GoTo 0

'Export active BOM config, in order to restore it 
Call oBOM.ExportBOMCustomization(BOM_tempo)
oAss.save
'Load the custom BOM config file
oBOM.ImportBOMCustomization ("c:\temp\custom BOM.xml")
oAss.save
'...some code...

'Restore the original BOM config file
Call oBOM.ImportBOMCustomization(BOM_tempo)
oAss.save
End Sub

This should work for your code......
