If you select (Create Part List Report) tool, the main window for the parts list processing will open – first without any entries. This dialog has its own program menu offering you most of the utilized commands for this command.

If you have selected one or several files for processing via the File > Open menu, the window will show the following information. The left column displays the currently open files. Clicking a file name makes this file your current working file and all components of that file—mostly unsorted—are listed in the right list of the dialog.

The component parts list offers only a draft display of the entries. By double-clicking an entry, another dialog opens listing all parts lists data for this entry. You can modify any data at this point, which are saved in the corresponding file immediately once you exit the window with the OK button. This means you are not working with just a working temporary buffer copy but with the actual file!
