Macro to open SolidWorks Assembly files in background from an excel list, refresh, and then save the BOM to an Excel file.

We update our BOM's Weekly, it would be nice to have a Macro which opens SolidWorks Assembly files in background from an excel list, refreshes them, and saves the BOM to an Excel file of the same name.

20 yr SolidWorks User, but first time on the forum - any directions would be appreciated.

You will have better chances in the API-section.
Do you have a BOM in Assembly files or should it be first created? What if many BOMs in assembly?
Do you have configurations in assemblies? How to deal with these?
What kind of format you have in an excel list?
