    Default Problems with Multiple Assly's in Dwgs!

    HI! I am trying to match my "Material List" with the parts in my dwg. However whenever there is more than one assembly in a dwg all the parts in the other assly's have the same #. How do you get around this! Using Inventor 2011 Routed Sys Suite!
    Thanks!
    Paul

    Hey, Paul.

    I know it's not exactly what you want, but the way I'd recommend proceeding would be
    1) turn your assemblies to phantom
    2) place your assemblies into a master assembly
    3) make an idw of the master assembly.

    I've tried placing multiple iams in a single idw. The only way that didn't bring me much grief later was to place each iam on a different page, with its own BOM starting with item 1.

    Hopefully one of those two suggestions help,
    Jon
