Calculate Weights in Excel BOM

The calculation of weight totals requires special settings:

•Use TOTAL_QTY instead of QTY for the formulas

•Uncheck the option for in-context parts

These settings would avoid miscalculations due to the fact that the same weight is calculated twice for some components.
