Lennyworks AssemblyBOM macro problem

[nickjb]

I need to do something pretty similar to AssemblyBOM from Leenyworks. I had a downloaded copy which I have been playing with. I don't think I have done anything drastic but it only works every other time it is run. Very repeatable. One time it works, the next time not, then it works again. I don't think I have changed anything significant. I just nipped over to Lennyworks to start again with a 'clean' version and I can't find it.

Anyone have a link to a new copy?

I'm sure it was here:

Just found a zipped up original in an old folder and that has the same glitch. After some testing it seems it only does it if I use the windows [X] to exit rather than selecting [close]

How are you running it? Are you making sure to run it from the main module.

Just an FYI: SW2010 supports assembly BOMs.

Actually, Assy BOM's were introduced in 2009 if you haven't made the leap to 2010 yet.

I've encountered similar macro problems in other macros. It usually has to do with the macro not properly closing out all of its objects (i.e. due to unepected exit mode).

Sounds like one of those things you just need to be aware of. I understand Lenny has a double-your-money-back for AssemblyBOM customers that are less than 100% satisfied.
