Hi Sandra,
I've done this many times before. In Table Maintenance, add 2 columns
to your points table to hold the coordinates. Then use Update Table to
update each column using the function CentroidX and CentroidY. I'm
assuming you're using UTM, so CentroidX would be for the Easting and
CentroidY for the Northing. But you probably figured that out without
me telling you. 8-)

I was wondering if anyone can help me to populate a table with
coordinates from point created on a Map. I need to create an excel
(csv) file from this. I know how to create the csv file from a table.
I just need to know how to populate the table. We have created points
on a map but I now need the coordinates of these points. There are a
lot of them so I don't want to have to manually type these in. Is there
away to populate the table?
Thanks you in advance to all who can help.
Cheers,
Sandra Rickard
