in SolidWorks BOM Superstar: 5 Moves to Avoid and How to Groove It on SolidSmack
Re: point #3:
"If you have one configuration showing, you don’t need the name to show in the BOM Quantity Column. It’s just silly."
It is silly. Who would ever want to do that? Why is it there? It's the reason my company uses Excel-based BoM tables (and all the associated issues those give).

Simon (Boy is this a late reply) it's used for 'matrix' BOM's, i.d when you have more than one configuration showing in your BOM. I've sen some use it for a single config shown, but really I think it should be "IF config = 1, THEN no name showing" - at least the option is there though
One thing I can say for sure. I am able to open configurations of some assemblies without crashing. It my opinion that 09 SP0 is more stable than 08 SPX. Which is why I'm moving everyone else over this week.
