Michael, in general the hole tool in Wildfire is yet another 50%
solution to a request of functionality by PTC. This tool is not worth
the code it took to write it. Here is the short list of grips with it.

Can not specify any kind of pipe thread. ie a tapered hole
Forget about using the note that the system generates it is completely
useless.
I spent 80 hours making a UNC UNM UNF UNJ hole tables only to find out
that the note function did not work.
Does not support Helicoils

I was told that the note functionality will not be fixed until build
M0210 of Wildfire 2

Until the user base expresses discontent with the half baked products we
are being served nothing is going to change.
