Some of the Table headers that use custom properties are not coming in as all caps (ANSI Standard). For example, the weldment cut-list table header contains "Description" and "MATERIAL" while the BOM table header contains "DESCRIPTION" AND "Material", which is the reverse. I would like all these headers in the table to be all caps. It seems SolidWorks has an SPR 399932 on this issue.

ANSI standard drawing requires capital writing text/annotation, but some linked material property names contain lowercase characters

Since Technical Support could not offer me a work around, has anyone else encountered this problem? If so, what was your solution or work around? This is related to my previous posting

Also, I have imported a title block from AutoCad to create a new drawing format in SolidWorks. It seems the layers were imported as well, and the dimensions (insert model items) and tables are coming in on a layer titled "AM_BOR" that is an orange color, so the printed drawing hard copy is washed out. In need remove these items from this layer in the drawing template. How is this done?
