I figure I must be overlooking the obvious, but I can't seem to get the Description for individual configurations to show up in my BOM. I've tried with both SW BOM and Excel. I wondered if the probelm was that the Configuration Specific property is named Description, just like the custom property, but I thought the Configuration took precedence over the default Custom property. It seems to work that way for my Drawing Number field. I found a couple posts that appear to address this thru API commands, but isn't there a way to do this directly? I don't have the time, at the moment, to get a macro working.

Thanks for any help.
