I too am frustrated by this simple function. I need to be able to make a table that shows the location (relative to x and y like in ordinate dimensions) of dimensions that I can add columns for information like counterbore diameter and depth, drill point type, ream, drill, hone, fold, spindle, mutilate or whatever else I might want. All it realy needs is a way to get point data into a tabular note so we could work our spreadsheet magic on it. I'm a Designer not a Programmer damn it.(Star Trek referance to Dr. Macoy). Can't one of you geniuses solve this problem?[bigears]

If you are using NX6 or higher version like NX 7.5. and If Hole Table option is not coming in Drafting application, set the following variable :

UGII_DRAFTING_HOLE_TABLE = 1

(If u are using XP, MB3 the My Computer->Properties->Advanced->Environment Variables and in 'User Variables' section, click New->write UGII_DRAFTING_HOLE_TABLE in the above text field and enter 1 in the below text field, give OK to all the dialogs. )

Restart UG, u should be able to create Hole Table!

I set that system variable as mentioned and received the following error message when I tried to invoke the hole chart command

Failed to load image - see log file for details

File name: C:\Program Files\UGS\NX 6.0\tooling_base\application\libmwpdw_com.dll

Function name: ufusr

It is working absolutely fine for me.
You can find the command in Drafting Application, by selecting
Insert->Table->Hole Table... once after setting the above variable and restarting NX.
I have tested it on NX6.0.5.3.
