Another thread looks at modeling screw threads. One way is to Sweep a triangle around a locus, with pitch = height. But Vectorworks limits sweeps to 3600° max, or 10 wraps. Longer thread would require more wraps/angle.
Wish: Vectorworks Sweep command allows unlimited wraps, or at least a greater number of wraps, eg 100.
