I've checked the forum, is there a way to override the default row height for a parts list when the update part list option is selected? I have changed all my part list row heights, but when I update it returns them to the default height and I'd like to change the default so that they are consistent when I update.

Nevermind, the cell preferences had the auto row setting click on as well, not just the part list. Unselecting it caused my rows to stay the same when update parts list was called.

What you have to do is select the Parts List, press MB3 and select the 'Cell Style...' option. When the Annotation Style' dialog opens, go to the 'Fit Methods' tab, toggle OFF the 'Auto Size Row' item and hit OK. You should now be able to edit any of the Cell's height and it will remain even if you later update the Parts List.
