Hi all !!

The rebuild (stoplight) sign isn't going away after I do a full rebuild , Ctrl-Q. (see attachment)
I've tried deleting the table and inserting a new one with the same result. There are no rebuild , sketch , or mate errors in any of the parts or the assembly.

Any ideas what I did wrong and how to fix it ?

You've probably already done this, but I would first "save all", "close all", shut down SW, clean out the temp folders and files, remove any "~" tilde files, reboot pc, and open assembly and/or part models and rebuild all models, save all changes, make a test drawing of the same model to see if you get the same rebuild flag setting. If you dont get the same error on the new drawing, you will know the drawing file possibly contains corrupted data tied to the BOM feature table that is flagging a rebuild. You might use API to reset the rebuild flag manually, not sure if this will help.

  Thanks John ! Have another one on me
  
  Turns out that the "Automatic update of BOM" was unchecked in the Document Properties. , checked it on and bye-bye rebuild.

    I guess I am confused as to why your BOM table was still flagged with the rebuild symbol after your manual rebuild. Even with the "Automatic update of BOM" set to off, should the rebuild symbol not have disappeared with a manual update? After all, the rebuild symbol indicates whether a dependant feature has changed letting you know to rebuild the part. Whether it is done automatically or manually, the rebuild should remove the "rebuild" stop sign, should it not?

      Yeah , you're right. It shouldn't make a difference
      I'm wondering if it's cuz' it's on old drawing from 2003 that I updated the models and drawing templates?
