Select all instances of cells form a dynamic table

Question

HI,
I've an issue with a table.
I've found some answers here : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/849841 but don't work.
Let me explain.
I've got a dynamic table (with addInstance button and remove one).
There is 4 columns: 2 open and 2 readOnly.
Some users are allowed to change the readOnly ones.
Then, I've created a password field.
with :
if (formulaire1.titre.pw.pass.rawValue == "123")
and here... I'm bloqued
I've tried :
for (i=0;i<=formulaire1.check.tab1.r1.instanceManager.count;i++){
     xfa.resolveNode{"formulaire1.check.tab1.r1.[" + i + "].materiel").access = "open" ;
but failed (notting happend)
I've tried :
xfa.formulaire1.check.tab1.r1.resolveNodes("materiel[*]").access = "open";
failled, too
I've tried just : formulaire1.check.tab1.r1.materiel.access = "open";
Just open the first instance...
I'm not developper just designer... And here, I'm lost.
Thanks to help me.

Hi,
The finished version of the SOM Expression example is here: http://assure.ly/kUP02y.
Try this in the exit event of the pass object:
var nMateriel = xfa.resolveNodes("formulaire1.check.tab1.r1[*].materiel");
var nFinishes = xfa.resolveNodes("formulaire1.check.tab1.r1[*].finishes");
if (this.rawValue == "123") {
     for (var i=0; i<nMateriel.length; i++) {
          nMateriel.item(i).access = "open";
          nFinishes.item(i).access = "open";
else  {
     for (var i=0; i<nMateriel.length; i++) {
          nMateriel.item(i).access = "readOnly";
          nFinishes.item(i).access = "readOnly";
This covers the material object and a fictional "finishes" to represent the second object that you want to set to open.
Also in your for script you were using an "i" variable, but you did not declare it, eg "var i=0". This is a hit on performance.
Hope that helps,
Niall
