Design Creating an editable fixture XYZ location worksheet in Vectorworks 2010

I have tried the Vectorwork forums without much response so I thought I would try here...

Does anyone know how to I create an editable fixture XYZ location worksheet?

I am a VWorks 2010 PC user.

I have created a plot and set the 0,0,0 datum origin coordinates downstage center.

I then create a worksheet with "Create report".

Selected data:

- List all: Objects with a record
- Lighting device

Worksheet columns:
A: Instrument Type
B: Channel
C: Position
D: Purpose
E: X Location
F: Y Location
G: Z Location

All fixture information tracks correctly (Fixture, channel, position, purpose)but the X location, Y location are way off origin "0" and the Z location is close but not spot on as per selected fixture coordinates in the object info palette.

AutoCAD does a great job at exporting attributes and it is pretty seemless.

The ability to do this in VWorks is something that has been eluding me for some time.
