Problem with Hole Tables in NX8.5

Hi,

When I try to create hole tables in drawings with <Alphabet><Number> I get problems. If you look at the picture I attached (On View A), it works fine if you select all holes and make one table, then NX sort the different holes in A, B, C... and so on. But we need to get every diffrent hole in its own table (like in View B).

The problem is that it just restarts from A every time when you make a new table. In reality, we have plates with 100's various holes so it it doesn't work well to put all the holes in one list. Is it possible to fix this with some kind of settings? Because when you do a hole tables with just numbers every new table continues with a number where the last table stoped.

Thanks in advance!

Ok thanks for the answer John!

I guess you have to go in and edit manually/ using workarounds until we have gained NX9 over here then..

Best regards
