I would like to add one row in between for a Dummy part [Dummy part means not a CAD Part]..

For Example,

Below is the original repeat region

001-Prt001.prt

002-Prt002.prt

003-Prt003.prt

I need below table:

001-Prt001.prt

000-Dumy Part [This part is not present into CAD]

002-Prt002.prt

003-Prt003.prt

Regards

Ketan

I tried to add a line between Prt001 and PRT002, but end up with one extra line after each cad part

Look into bulk objects.

You add a bulk object to your assembly and it appears in both the model tree and the BOM, but it isn't represented by any CAD geometry. It would typically be used for something like glue, paint, grease or anything else that isn't modeled but has to be included in the BOM.

I have a model called dummy.prt that has all the parameters that standard parts have. This part is a family table with each instance being a part that is not modeled but needs to be in the assembly. I just assembly 000-DumyPart into the assembly at 0,0,0 and the pattern it if there is more than one instance of that part. That way my BOM is correct.

Hopefully that helps.

I do this for parts such as plastic bags, rubber bands, ....

Sorry,

Got pulled into a meeting and couldn't respond as fast as I'd like.

I was going to offer both options: Dale Rosema and Don Senchuk

I prefer the bulk object option.

You however, left the impression that there may, in the future, be a need to generate a part. Therefore, choosing Dale's option may be beneficial to you.

A bulk item is the way I would go and then fix the index.
