Pro/Table question

Pro/Table question

Pro/Table question

(OP)
Hello there,

I am trying to make a variable pattern using a 'table' pattern. I have a part which I want to pattern 40 times but with different dimensions. I know I can do this:

!#Pro/TABLE    

2    21
3    42
4    63
5    84
6    105
7    126

This pattern where distanve between the patterned parts is 21mm. But if I want to change one I have to change everything below. So my question is is it possible in Pro/Table to link one cell with another to make a function like you can do in excel? In this way I could do this:

!#Pro/TABLE    

2    21
3    =B4+21
4    =B5+21
5    =B6+21
6    =B7+21
7    =B8+21

and then just change one number. I know that cells in Pro/Table have its own ID. The '=B4' is what you use in excel.

I know you can do this with 'direction' pattern but the distance between parts is not always 21.

I hope you can understand what I mean.
