    Has anyone seen this problem, 2004 sp5 the item numbers that a put on the
    drawing don't match the items numbers in the solidworks bom? If so is there
    a fix?

    Item numbers don't show properly through Broken-Out sections I have reported
    this but haven't heard that is has been fixed. To work around you have to
    attach to edges only and not surfaces in broken-out sections.

    Same applies to interfering bodies, i.e. if you have a PEM Fastener in
    the assembly. This may be fixed in SWX2005 SP2 have yet to try it.

  4. You could try doing this, select a view that you already ballooned. Then RMB
    and go to 'Properties...' for that view. In the lower left corner, check the
    box to 'Keep linked to BOM' and make sure you select the correct BOM from
    the drop down list. Usually 'Bill Of Materials1'. This always fixes that
    problem for me.
