Also try forum802. Just note that you have also posted the same question in this forum if you do.
 
What kind of stiffness - axial or flexural? Either way just set the member property modifier for the behaviour you are interested in to an insignificant number.
 
I want a column to have zero flexural stiffness. I want all the shear to be taken by the shear walls.
