Cadworx Plant 2019 how do you get the Bill of Material to come out in all caps. So how do you get the bolt alpha size to comin in inches and not feet in the size column

BOM is derived from the specification, so if the long descriptions are lowercase, it will transfer as such to the BOM.

Normally use metric/metric inch. Have never seen bolts come out in feet.

Our studs come in properly with 2019, check the spec editor, the 1'-0" may be reading your 12"-300# nominal size instead of the stud diameter. As for the BOM table I could not find the file location (used to be a .TXT file long ago, now if you import the BOM settings it references a config.XML (find/replace works in a bind to change the case)

That looks like you need to set BOMBOLTCONTROL in the Config file.

That right I want it to read the the 12" nominal size but for some reason it want to do it to feet not inches. I have export a xml file for the bom template and looked at it but do not see were to change fot the case on the bill of material title

the new Cadworx 2019 bomboltcontrol is set right but it is in two place in the config file and in the bom setup the only one you have to adjust is in the bom setup
