Little help accessing Edit_Poly/Poly_Select data

Hi,

I would appreciate it if anyone can give me a hint on how I can access and modify the soft selection of an Edit_Poly/Poly_Select modifier in 3ds Max 2011.

Assuming SoftSelection is enabled and locked, I need to manually set the selection weight for each vertex.

Looking forward to any suggestions.
