CAPTURE TO EXCEL
-
Generate a Bill of Materials (BOM) for your assembly in .xls format. Ensure that the Part Number and Default Representation Source columns are included.
-
In the Excel BOM file, work only with the part rows listed below the Total Part section. You can delete the rows above. (For details, refer to the instructional video.)
-
Run the Capture to Excel macro and select the location of the Excel file containing the BOM.
-
The macro will prompt you to enter the column number for the Default Representation Source. Provide the corresponding column number.
-
Next, the macro will ask for the column number of the Part Number. Enter the relevant column number.
-
The macro will begin processing. Depending on the number of parts, this may take some time.
-
Once the macro completes, the Part Number column in the Excel file will contain the captured isometric view of the corresponding part as a visual in the description field.
-
Note: Make sure the Excel file is opened correctly before selecting its location in the macro. License warning pop-ups or similar issues may interrupt the macro’s operation.
