I see....the drawing view must be selected BEFORE choosing Insert>Tables>Excel-Based BOM. That is strange since this is not necessary to insert a standard SW Table-Based BOM.
Thanks

Be sure to point at a drawing view prior to do the insert BOM command. Otherwise the excel BOM command will be grey out.
I hope this is the solution.

Any ideas on how to activate Insert>Table>Excell Based Bill of Material, SW 2006 SP0? It is greyed out. I have installed Excell 2002. Also, the SW table-based BOM works fine and exports just fine.
TIA

  1. Be sure to point at a drawing view prior to do the insert BOM command. Otherwise the excel BOM command will be grey out.
  2. Check your Solidworks system requirements for Excel version.
