Hi,
I want to create a hole table template with <hw-descrp> added to the "Size" column.
I can do this manually for each hole, but if I try and save the table as a template <hw-descrp> disappears from the column.

What normally appears in the column:
<MOD-DIAM> <hw-diam> <hw-thru>

What I want:
<MOD-DIAM> <hw-diam> <hw-thru><hw-descrp>

Is there a way to do this?

I believe the hole table column showing the hole wizard information is actually driven by the calloutformat.txt file so that would likely have to modified whether it's on your machine or on a shared drive.

Take this with a grain of salt because I haven't tested this.

I think calloutformat.txt only works with the Hole Callout command. I don't see anything in there referencing hole tables.

I tested it and got the same result as you. It looks like the first 4 columns can't be modified, and the <hw-descrp> property isn't available to use in a new column.

My best suggestion is a macro that does this for you.
