Well it doesn't matter what you drill the hole with.  The Tapcon is usually put 
in by hand with a nut driver or screwdriver.   They used to sell masonary bits 
to use in a regular drill and hammer drill bits for the hammer drill.  I don't 
know it that is still true.  Regardless a regular drill  with a masonary or 
hammer drill will put a hole in concrete but not as fast as a hammer drill.

  Thanks, it did not make sense that they would only work with a hammer drill.

  Lenny,

  I use tapcon screws with a cordless drill all the time. Just
  need to make sure you drill the hole deeper than the screw

  I was told by a guy at the hardware section that you can
  only use tapcon
  with a hammer drill. Is this correct? I have a 1/4 inch
  corded and a 3/8
  inch rechargeable.
