Make Nearest Data Point Grid

This command creates a distance grid file where the value of each grid corner is set to the distance to the nearest data point in a drillhole. This is useful to see the distance between drillholes when planning  additional drilling. The grid can be contoured, as shown below, for better analyzing. The grid dimensions are set first, then two dialogs appear to select the strata to grid, and the attribute to grid.
