One table driven part per 2D Layout

Is there a SIMPLE way (read not a lot of programming) to make a table driven
part and then show each version of the part on it's own Layout? Can you make
a layout with views that automatically are connected to a version of the
table driven part?
For instance, an o-ring
2 variables, Od and wall
First layout shows a 1" od x 1/8 wall
Next layout - just flip to it - and there's the 1-1/8od x 3/16 wall

If not, can Inventor do this?

Thanks in advance, Dick

Only thing that comes to mind is to lock the views on the sheet..... make one layout, then
lock it, then update the part to the next version and make the next layout etc.
