Hi Eric, Thank you for your response. Actually you answered what was going to be my next question, perhaps you're a little psychic. That was excellent information you provided and I will definitely make use of it. Let me reword my original question and see if I can't make it more clear. When you create a standard tapped hole using the hole dashboard in Wildfire 4 it will create a text note on the model with a default format for the text. If you select the note from the model tree, right click on it and select "properties" it will open the dialog box where you can edit the standard text. The default format (this I want to change) for the text note shown in the dialog box is this: &METRIC_SIZE &THREAD_SERIES - &THREAD_CLASS &STD_HOLE_TYPE &VAR_THREAD &THREAD_DEPTH &NUMBER_SIZE DRILL ( &DIAMETER ) &VAR_DEPTH &DRILL_DEPTH -( &PATTERN_NO ) HOLE which creates a note on the model and associated drawing that looks like this: 1/2-13 UNC - 2B TAP (a downward arrow depth symbol) 1.000 27/64 DRILL (0.422) (a downward arrow depth symbol) 1.250 -( 1 ) HOLE I want to change the default format so all the tapped hole notes read differently when I create the tapped hole and not have to edit each text note individually which can be done but is way too time consuming. There are two things I would like to change: 1) I'd like the drill and tap depth to be a two place dimension instead of a three place in this application only and not affect other decimal place settings for other things ... and 2) I want to re-arrange the default text so the tapped hole text note reads differently. Surely there must be a default text file or config option that controls the default text format for a tapped hole, this is what I'm looking to change. I hope that makes my question more clear.
