I have eleven different sub assemblies customers can choose from. The
customer can choose 1 to 3 of those sub assemblies to complete the final
assembly. Is there a way to consolidate the information when I do a total
materials used page so I dont have a bunch of 0s taking up a lot of space?

This is what Im looking for:

Apply Autofilter to your quantity column and from the filter pull-down
select Custom | Not Equal to | 0 PIECES. The offending rows will now be
hidden.

Hope this helps.

Is there a way to have it refresh if the customer changes the option?

I don't know of any way to make it automatically refresh, other than with a
macro.
