BOM creation in PCAD

[Kunal]

Hi,
BOM creation in PCAD seems really weird. It doesnt group all the same
component types in the same row in the BOM.

eg.
if R1,R2,R3 are all the same type and value, they should occur in a
single line on the BOM. But I get a line for each one of them and the
same part no / price etc on each line.

How can I correct this?

Thanks

There are several third-party DBX utilities to do BOM's, got one
myself somewhere, but all that is at work.

You need to hook up with the PCAD users group on Yahoo. A search on
'PCAD' should show it up. There is a file area with utilities. There
is a PCAD UG on the altium site too.
