including &todays_date in BOM export?

[djefferies]

Hello all,
I know there are a few posts on how to export a simple BOM from an assembly, and i have read through most of them, but there is one helpful parameter i have not found.
Does anyone know the magic parameter or a way to call the todays_date function in the BOM exporting configuration file? I have copied my config file below with &todays_date where i would like it.


%$todays_date
_______________________________________________________
.summary
%$type %$name revision %REVISION contains items

.titles PART_NUMBER;DESCRIPTION;TYPE;QTY;COST;SOURCE
-------------------------------------------------------
.row %$name[-30s];%DESCRIPTION[50s];%$type[-5s];%$quantity[-4d];%COST[8.2d];%SOURCE[-25]
-------------------------------------------------------

TOTAL COST:$%[$total(COST)][8.2d]


Thanks All
