Without using Excel, is there a way to calculate the total weight of an item
based on its quantity in an assembly.

TIA
Fred

You can also use the solidworks Bom to do you just need to select the
template bom-weight. But be careful if you different units SW will report
whatever units the item was made in. You can also use Mass properties in the
Assembly

Thanks for the tip, but can I also get SW to calculate the "total weight".
ie if part 1 weighs 3 lbs and there's qty 12, total weight = 36???

Thanks again.
Fred
