BOM uppdate on drawing

[montylowe]

Having issues with my BOM not updating on my drawing after assembly has changed. Also I would like to make sure it stays sorted. I have a drawing templete the houses several views and an assembly that is changed via VB but when I open the drawing the views are updated but BOM is not. I have to do and edit and sort for the correct values to appear.

Thanks in advance.

Does anyone have any light to shed or code to share regarding this Post? Thank

OK maybe I haven't explained this very well. After I undate a assembly model I open the drawing and the BOM that I have on the drawing is not updated to the changeas that I have made only after I double pick the BOM and then close it does it reflect my changes is there a way to update iths thru the API

I hope someone can shed some light.

Use the DrawingDocument.Update method.

Found what I needed in the folowing Post.

By sorting the PartsList it Updates to current values
