(OP)
Is there an easy way in ProE 2001 to find the coordinates (x, y, and z) of a feature relative to a specified coordinate system.  For instance if I want the location of the center of a hole relative to a part's default CS can I get it without making several measurements from CS to the hole?

Thanks,
Scott

Use the MEASURE feature, and pick your FROM point to measure, then pick the TO point and select the default CS.

In PROJECTION REFERENCE, pick the CS system. The results will be displayed as x,y and z.
