hole pattern instances

Hi,
If I have a pattern of holes, is it possible to suppress just one of the holes rather than redo the complete pattern? This was easy in SW, but I have not been able to figure it out here.

Thanks,
Bob

    I'm not sure this functionality exists if you're using the hole feature. Maybe you could just delete the hole faces manually? 

    Alternatively, you could use a sketch pattern to define your hole locations and you can easily delete elements from the sketch pattern before you make the holes. I think this would work if you're using points to make holes with the hole features or if you're drawing circles and extruding them to make holes, either way.
