SetLockState Method

Sets the lock state of a VI. If Interactive is FALSE (default), you can use Password to unlock a password-protected VI or set the password of an unprotected VI. If Interactive is TRUE, LabVIEW ignores Password and displays a dialog box that prompts you to change the lock state.
