Create a table (the number of the columns is the number of the parameters you want to show)

Repeat Region > Add > Simple > select the two corners of your table (left and right)

Enter text > Select each of the headers of the columns you want to fill them > Report Sum, and :

fam.inst.name

fam.inst.param.name

fam.inst.param.value

these are the three pareameters you should use for the family tables

Try this and if you need anything else email me for further help

xcad, I understood partially.

A row of the family table of a bolt contains the value of bolt diameter(BD), bolt length(BL), head dia(HD) and head length(HL). I want all these values to appear in a single row for a bolt, in the drawing table. Presently, I am getting the value,BD, repeatedly, in a single row followed by BL, repeatedly,in the next row, HD in the next and then HL in the next row. I want all these values to appear in a single row itself. Please help.

Thanks,

Rajesh
