I am having an issue with a couple of part numbers. Lines 3 and 4 have a dash and quote symbol in front of the numbered part and it is not intended. I have searched all the properties of the parts and everything looks good. The only solution I have found is to reinsert a new bill of material which corrects the problem.

I have not seen that before.
Did you check "all" custom properties of each configuration?

Yeah, its a new one for me too. These are single configuration parts, I checked every area I could think would apply.
 
Check to make sure if you are using just Custom Properties that the COnfig specific props are completely cleared out. I have found the same property in both areas causes conflicts in all areas of the Drawing including BOM's
