Is there a way to mass password-protect vi's?

I'm trying to password-protect a dir tree of vi's but can't find the vi's set lock property in the vi's dropdown list. Here's my test with the vi names, which works fine.

So plese, anybody, how do I lock the vi's?

 

Thanks,

Evan

Set Lock State is not a property. It's a method (see the arrow on the node in Darren's image), so you need to use an invoke node.

 

In general, properties are data which the object has and methods are actions which you can take on it, so you should always remember to think what it is that you want to do and look through both lists in any case.
