Parameterized Parts

If I have several instances of the same parameterized part, how do I changed the parameters of only one of them, leaving the rest unaffected?

    Michael this seems like an example of the use of configurations.

    You can make 2 or more configurations of the part. Each configuration can have unique parameter values. In the Assembly you reference the specific configuration of that part.

    There are a lot of videos on this topic. and you can look at the help section

    Thank you Joe.  Now that you have jogged my memory I believe you are right.
