.BOM file

When I select Info > Bill of Materials a .bom file is created in my work folder.


The question I have is:


How do I get PROE to output parameters to the .bom file?


The Help files says it will but it does not tell me how specifically.


==============
<H1>About Bill of Materials (BOM)</H1>
The Bill of Material (BOM) lists all parts and part parameters in the current assembly or assembly drawing. It can be displayed in HTML or text format and is separated into two parts; breakdown and summary.
The Breakdown section lists what is contained in the current assembly or part. The Summary section lists the total quantity of each part included in the assembly, and is the list of all the parts needed to build the assembly from the part level.
 
Great question. I was trying to find out the other night.
The Pro|E help file kind of sucks. But I am sure someone here
will have the answer. I would also try searching this forum, as I
wouldn't be surprised if someone else has already asked this and gotten
answers.
