What version are you using? We have WF4 and there are NPT holes ... assuming you want internal threads. There are no NPT threads in external cosmetics... a huge pet peeve of mine.

Using the Hole tool, select "Standard Hole" and "Tapered Hole". Scroll down in the "Thread series" pull down and there should be NPT and NPTF. If they're not there... I can only assume something may be wrong with your install.
