[Shirson]

Create table.
Create phone and write PH1 on Name field
On Init field write
[PH1] exec "Phone_Table.sqs"
Save mission.
Alt-Tab
Open text editor and write

_Object = _this select 0
_ObjPos = getpos _Object
_ox = _ObjPost select 0
_oy = _ObjPost select 1
_Object setpos [_ox, _oy,  0.5] ;change 0.5 for other value, for right table heigth
Exit

Save file into mission directory. File name must be Phone_Table.sqs
Return into OFP editor and press Preview.

Yep, but script more visual.

For init string:
PH1 setpos [(getpos PH1) select 0, (getpos PH1) select 1, 0.5]
