Is there any way to make an object dependent on another so that if I delete one object, any other objects that I have linked to it are also deleted? I've tried using groups, but I don't want them connected so they all move together or are bound in any other way. Basically, I just want to be able to delete the line in my bill of materials and it will also delete the associated object so I can't forget to delete the actual object as well.

Not that I am aware of.OK...I thought of a way but you aren't going to like it.Put the object and the line in your bill of materials on its own layer.  Use the LAYDEL command to delete the layer.  Poof!  Both entities are gone from your drawing.  Magic.
