troubles with excel BOM in SW2004

Gentlemen:

I have an excel BOM in an exploded drawing of an assembly. 17 parts.
Each time I send the drawing to my printer it adds multiple copies of
the parts to the BOM. On screen right in front of my eyes. If I
uncheck the update BOM feature it doesn't happen, but, if I use one of
the sample BOM templates this doesn't happen. Also I made my
template out of the same sample template after a little tweaking.

What little check box have I missed?
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

There was this note at the bottom of the page for Excel-based BOM's.

NOTE: Do not change the cell names in the Name Box for the default columns
in the BOM template. You can change the text in the column heading, but not
the cell name.
