HOW TO LINK BOM PART NUMBER TO DETAIL DRAWING

HI EVERYBODY

I WANT UPDATE MY BOM QTY. IN DETAIL DRAWING AUTOMATICALLY. I GET MACRO WHICH WAS DEVLOPED BY WARD DEVIS BUT I NOT GETTING HOW USE THIS MACRO. .

PLEASE PROVIDE DETAIL PROCEDURE FOR IT

MACRO CODING AS FOLLOWS

Sub UpdateQtys()

Dim swApp as SldWorks.SldWorks 'added this line

Dim Assembly as ModelDoc2 'added this line

Dim myAsy As AssemblyDoc

Dim myCmps

Dim Cfg As String

Dim CmpDoc As ModelDoc2

Dim i As Long

Dim j As Long

Dim cCnt As Long

Dim NoUp As Long

Dim myCmp As Component2

Dim tCmp As Component2

dim tm as double

tm = timer

Set swApp = Application.Sldworks 'added this line

Set Assembly = swApp.ActiveDoc 'added this line

Set myAsy = Assembly

If Assembly.ConfigurationManager.ActiveConfiguration.Name <> Assembly.CustomInfo2("", "Cfg4Qty") Then

Assembly.Extension.ShowSmartMessage "Qtys not updated due to config", 1000, True, True

Exit Sub

End If

NoUp = 0

myCmps = myAsy.GetComponents(False)

For i = 0 To UBound(myCmps)

Set myCmp = myCmps(i)

If (myCmp.GetSuppression = 3) Or (myCmp.GetSuppression = 2) Then

cCnt = 0

Set CmpDoc = myCmp.GetModelDoc

Cfg = myCmp.ReferencedConfiguration

For j = 0 To i 'originally was "For j = 0 To UBound(myCmps)", I just changed it to make it faster, and it works (Riccardo)

Set tCmp = myCmps(j)

If tCmp.GetSuppression <> 0 Then

If tCmp.GetModelDoc2 Is CmpDoc Then

If tCmp.ReferencedConfiguration = Cfg Then

cCnt = cCnt + 1

End If

End If

End If

Next j

CmpDoc.AddCustomInfo3 Cfg, "AutoQty", 30, ""

CmpDoc.AddCustomInfo3 Cfg, "QtyIn", 30, ""

CmpDoc.CustomInfo2(Cfg, "AutoQty") = cCnt

CmpDoc.CustomInfo2(Cfg, "QtyIn") = Assembly.GetTitle & " Cfg " & Assembly.ConfigurationManager.ActiveConfiguration.Name

Else

NoUp = NoUp + 1

End If

Next i

Assembly.Extension.ShowSmartMessage NoUp & " Parts not updated due to lightweight (" & timer - tm & "s)", 10000, True, True

end sub
