    I'm look for an underdesk keyboard drawer or tray that does not need to drill holes under the desk to install, e.g. one that clips to the desk to secure its position. I have seen such kind in Hong Kong some years ago, but I'm trying to look for one in the U.S. Does such product even exist here?

    It might somewhere, but that sounds risky to me. I use a keyboard drawer, and I put a lot of force on it, and the moving it in and out would be hard on it if it was just clipped in place. Is there a reason you can't have holes?

    The desk I'm using is not a standard wooden desk but 5 feet banquet table. Material is made of hard plastic, but the main reason is that it does not have a flat underside to mount a keyboard drawer that needs to drill holes.

    Ok, that would make sense. About 20 seconds on google resulted in this keyboard drawer. I would spend some time on google looking, maybe even buy.com, amazon.com. pricegrabber.com or froogle.
