You may need to create a custom index parameter in each part and use that parameter to drive the index in your table. Then you sort by
the index.


1.Create INDEX parameter (integer) in start parts for assemblies/parts

2.When family table instances are used, include the INDEX parameter as a variable in the table

3.Under settings-->tree columns, show INDEX parameter to allow easy modification of the parameter in all parts

4.In drawing, sort repeat region by &asm.mbr.INDEX in order to sort by your new custom index parameter.

If you go into BOM Balloons - Set Parameter, you first select your Repeat Region and then select the column that has the part number
or name in it. It should then change all of your BOM balloons to the part name or number.
