First, load a normal wall as a panel in the curtain wall. Then you can place a normal door in that wall.

To explain a bit further:

-You may need to make a thin (1" thick to match glass for instance) Wall Type.

-Then, use Tab key to highlight the curtain panel, unpin it, and select the thin wall as the panel type.

-Then, as Alf says, place a normal wall hosted door into the "wall" panel.
