Installation Instructions for bomdemo.xls (Bill of Materials program)

The Bill of Materials program uses AutoCAD14 or later and Excel to extract text from a .DWG file.  Therefore, the AutoCAD14 and Excel applications must both be present on your Win98/95 or later system. 

Initially, run Set Up from the BOM menu and then save the program.  This sets the reference library and only has to be done once.  Note: the program extracts only single line text on a layer named "bom".

If you encounter installation problems, please run the diagnostic.xls program and email the text results to: tensor@canoemail.com
The diagnostic program opens and closes AutoCAD, lists error messages, version numbers and file pathnames. This information allows us to make a software patch for your type of situation.
