The "Table Definition" window is shown below. In this window the user can specify table name (HTML tags can be used for superscripts, subscripts etc). The title can include %data_name% tag which will be replaced with the dataset name later. The CIF tags define the table columns. If some tag is essential for data comparison (element types or publication flags), but should not be shown in the table its "Visible" property should be 'false'.

Add - adds a new CIF tag to the table (defines a column)
Edit - allows editing selected CIF tag
Delete - deletes selected tag from the table

CIF Tag - select the one from the list. The list is stored in "loops.dat" file and new entries can be added manually
Name - the name of the column in the table. HTML tags can be used
Equal to - the value of the tag in CIF should be equal to the specified value (for example if you need to create the table of hydrogen atom coordinates put H for the "_atom_site_type_symbol" tag)
Not Equal to - result reversed to the described above
Multiplier - specifies the multiplier for the tag when it is inserted in the table
