Hello Michael,
Try placing a net label on the unused pin in the schematic. For instance
FPGA_NC001, FPGA_NC002 etc. If I recall it correct this wil result in a
netname for the unused pin. Test it before you fill the schematic with a lot
of labels. At the moment I am not in the situation to check it for you.
Good-Luck
