Stadard english/metric tolerence fits in NX

(OP)
Is there a way to set the hole and shaft tolerance fits that are standard in the english and metric systems?
Example:  RC1, H8, g6 etc.

When creating 'Clearance Holes' using the NX Hole function, there is an option provided to define 'Fit', and in the case of Metric holes, they include an (H-) designation.

I remember coming across a text file in one of the sub-directories of NX that related to tolerance fits but can't seem to find it again.  I think that is may have been a third party extension.
