monkeyhanger Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 I have created a Pneumatic Schematic drawing using blocks for the variousparts with part refs attached, balloon refs and a corresponding parts list. However, Our parts list normally follow the following format. Item, Qty,Part No, Description. The standard ACAD parts list does not contain a column for Part No's. Any help producing a parts list with the extra column for part no would beappreciated I can produce a parts list I require, minus the part no column, using theblock command and adding a part ref, but I would like to have the blocks savedin a separate folded for my colleagues to access so that they can compile theirown schematic drawings and then add balloon refs and generate a parts list. I have tried creating blocks using "wblock" and then adding thepart ref. but when I insert in to a new drawing the part ref information doesnot appear to be inserted with the drawing. Any help producing a parts list with the extra column for part no would beappreciated. as would any info on inserting blocks.

neophoible Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 This looks like it belongs in the Inventor Forum. Perhaps a Moderator can move it for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neophoible Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Nope , I am using AutoCAD Mechanical 2011OK. I was going by your profile where it says "Using: Inventor 2011". You should probably update that. And the Forum you want is probably AutoCAD Vertical Products, as there is no "standard ACAD parts list" in vanilla AutoCAD.

monkeyhanger Posted July 22, 2013 Author Share Posted July 22, 2013 Hi, I use Inventor for the majority of my work and AutoCAD Mechanical for Hydraulic Schematics. This is what I want to achieve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
