Creation of Hole charts

I want NPT thread standards to be inserted into the hole menu. As per the help pdf it asks one to create a ****.hol file with parameteres as defined in standard .hol file. after that in the config file the hole_parameteres_file_path file is set to the location of the newly created .hol file. However I am unable to read this file. When i click insert hole command & click on the standard tapped holes my newly created hole series doesn't appears. Can anyone tell me how to achieve this?

1. What have you put for the THREAD SERIES parameter - I think it needs to be 4 characters or less.


2. Try copying the file to {installation directory}\text\hole





Even if one of the above works, I don't think that Pro/E can handle non-straight thread types.
