Generating table in Autocad

baliasM74U3 — Thu, 27 Aug 2020 01:05:19 GMT

Hi Experts

I was just trying to generate a table using table option in Auto cad. For my use, I want to add a serial number section as the first column. In the image attached, I have typed in the serial number. Is there any smart way to generate serial number like we do in excel. I have tried exporting an excel file to autocad, I didn't find that handy for editing.

Can some experts advice me on this ? Image attached.

When it come to 2 digits, the numbers are going multi line, I just need that in a single line. How could that be done ? What are the parameters that need to be adjusted to get required result.
