Remove screw from one family member

[PMEngnl]

Hello,

In a part(assembly) family I need to remove one of the screws from the assembly in some members (not needed in all members).
When i try to leave the replacement ID empty (see picture), the spreadsheet wants to remove these screws in all members, which is not wanted.
The family consist of different lenghts and 3 different sizes. For one size the screw is not needed.

Is there a way to remove this screw from some of the members without making a new family?
I'm using NX 12.0.1.7 MP2.

Thanks.

edit:
I found a work around, not the most graceful but it works.
I made the unwanted screws reference only and suppressed them by expression.
Then i updated the familie members that don't need the screw.
Undid the reference and suppressed state and updated the rest of the familie.
Then i released the parts so they can't be changed later.

You don't need a work around, justo keep the cell empty like your image.
Don't use the apply option inside excel, just use create or update and save options.
