Table parameter indexing by (1) on every insert

MORECREO — Wed, 24 Sep 2025 21:54:07 GMT

I have an identification table (1 row) that I insert into a drawing and it contains &ID1:D.

When I insert the table I get flagged with the 'ADD PARAM' menu.

From here I select string, type my new value, and &ID1 gets added as a parameter in my drawing.

I would like to be able to add a 2nd ID table that gets bumped to &ID2:D, so that on every table insert I get an additional parameter created in my drawing.

These id's can range to well over 100. So simply creating (2) different tables, one with ID1 and one with ID2, will not solve my problem.

Is this even possible?

Thanks for your help!

Yes, you can. You only need to think about how edit should work. If you say that you never delete one id, you have only to deal with parameter search. Pagination should be done by the user, Without testing it I would assume, that pagination is possible for a none repeat table. Rather to insert a new table for each ID, increase the number of rows by one, and have a small interface for inserting the new parameter and value.

Hi,

it is not possible using OOTB Creo functionality. It requires programming knowledge. I can imagine that I would be able to add the required functionality using an AutoIT script (but I don't want to try it).

Yes I know, the request is &ID* (of the drawing) but I would recommend a report table for the attached model. and this is possible without programming, and Martin, please use 'As far "I" know it is not ... ' !

Create a Table
Add a simple Repeat Region (I used 2 columns, for the correct sort)
As repeat data enter: mdl.param.name and mdl.param.value
Add the filter &mdl.param.name == id*
Sort by &mdl.param.name Forward (without it is sorting by creation order !, maybe you can sort mdl.param.value by mdl.param.name for the single column)

Now you onlyRepeat Model Parameter of ID* need to add a new parameter "ID*" in your model, and 'Voila' the table will report this.
