I would like to create a drafting sheet in the part family file that displays a part family. One veiw that is a standard part and another one of the same family, but with a hole through it. Is this possible to do in the same file. I know I can create another file and have an assembly, but I would like to minimize the number of files.

Why do you want to minimize the number of file? Using an Assembly is the proper way to do this, period!

I hope you're also using the Master Model approach when making your drawing, that is the Drawing and the Models are in different files.
