That smacking sound that you just heard was me face-palming myself. We spent hours reading literally dozens of articles and threads trying to figure this out, and not once did anywhere ever mention getTable() creating tables. Thanks, Sam, for cluing us in.

Thanks to a post in another thread (https://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/s...17#post1524417) I also figured out that I didn't have the "Windows/amd64" ntcore library in my NetworkTables.jar. (I'm currently working on my Win7 laptop.) I got that resolved.

I now can successfully write to a NetworkTable and see the new tables and values in Outline Viewer.

This just made my week! Thank you!
