Thread sizes from MM to IN

Im trying to change the thread sizes from MM to IN. I know there are the txt files for MetricThickPitch and MetricThinPitch.

How can I change that to show inches?

RE: Thread sizes from MM to IN

create your own text files and put them in the same directory.  

or you can download others' text files (I know some are floating around here or coe)

Slaen - you can change or append the environment path of CATReffilesPath to a neutral spot on a server.  Everybody will pull the same tap configs.

To append use the ; between paths.

I keep trying to edit the text files but it doesnt seem to work.
All I want to do is change the MM to IN on threads?
When I open the metric thin or thick pitch I am not sure what to change.

Can anyone give me some advice?
