How would I create the female threaded hole from a screw I already made?

I have already made a screw and I am wondering if there is a way to stick it in a solid part and do a Boolean subtract kind of a thing. Essentially, if one starts with a screw, how do you make the female threaded hole for it?

Thanks!
Brian

    I am going to make the screw over in the same parts studio as the part to be holed. The hole is off axis and it just makes more sense to make the screw over to mitigate headaches :smiley:

    Thanks!
