Creating hole on helical pattern

Hey guys, I have been trying to create a hole pattern on an helical pattern. I have not had much luck other than just creating bunch of holes and rotating each row.

I would like to use the coil to create my path, make one hole then pattern on the helical path. This way I can use the coil to extrude a groove on path.

Thanks

Not sure if this is what you want. but you can import the IV file into most cad programs

Thanks but I need to holes to go toward the center axis of the coil.

I figured it out with the help of a friend and the guys on the Fusion 360 users on FB.

Too much to explain here, I will try to make a video.

Here is a short video describing the process. Hope this helps.
