Table Template
Click Browse for template 
to choose a standard or custom template. This option is available only during table insertion. The hole table templates supplied with the software add columns to the default format. They are located at: install_dir
\lang\english. The standard templates (standard hole table--letters.sldholtbt and standard hole table--numbers.sldholtbt) create TAG, XLOC, YLOC, and SIZE columns. One template uses letter tags, and the other uses number tags. All sizes and tags are listed separately, with none combined.
The combined hole table templates create
TAG,
XLOC,
YLOC, and
SIZE columns. They vary by combining like sizes or tags with letter or number tags. The templates are:
- hole table--sizes combined--letters.sldholtbt
- hole table--sizes combined--numbers.sldholtbt
- hole table--tags combined--letters.sldholtbt
- hole table--tags combined--numbers.sldholtbt
