Hole Table Questions

Hole Table Questions

Hole Table Questions

(OP)
Is there any way to reorder the holes in a hole table?

Is there any way to continue the lettering convention from one sheet to the next?

I have about 100 M4 holes on Sheet 2, (A1-A100 on the hole table).  When I make a second hole table on Sheet 3 for other holes (M6, etc.), it starts at A again, which can be confusing.  I wrote a macro to reletter the tags on Sheet 3, which worked well... until I have to add holes.  It sticks the new holes in the middle of the list.

For example, on sheet 3 I have M6 holes B1-B20.  When I add two more M6 holes, it calls them A30-A31.  That's fine, I can reletter them, but I want the new holes at the end of the list, and SW sticks them between B15 and B16.  Is there some way to just move them down the list?
