Section/Field	Description
Table Properties
Table Type	Select the type of table from the drop down list. Table type specifies the automatic or manual format for the table.
Station Name	User defined name for a table.
Parent Table	This option is available for any automated table selected. Assembly sorting is functional for the child table independent of the parent table. Truss Dimension section is grayed out for the child table. Offset section is functional for the child table. Quantity section is functional for the child table. Define a parent table by selecting another table in the Parent Table drop down list. This lets you duplicate the output criteria of the parent table to an additional format. For example, when a Parent Table is overloaded, work can be easily distributed to the Child Table since the output file already exists.
