How to select specific vertices on a spline (so I can manipulate them) ?

I've got a very simple shape that I want to write an automated script for.

I want to select the two lowest vertices (they will both be on the same height on the z-axis, say maybe 0), and I want to invert that selection so I have all the other vertices and move those up the z-axis a particular amount.

How can I find my two lowest vertices in my spline?

PS - I am a newbie in MaxScripting and am going through AutoDesk's MaxScript Essentials book, but I can't see it in there.

Many thanks.

I have a script that converts PhisicalMaterial to MSFS2020 FlightSim material. But it gives me error "unknown property: "filename" is undefined!" in this part:

on PM pressed do

if (queryBox "Convert all Physical Materials to FlightSim Material ?\nNot undoable !" title:"Materials convertion" beep:false) then
(
for mat in (getClassInstances PhysicalMaterial) do --pour tous les matos
(
new_FSmat = FlightSim()
new_FSmat.basecolorTex = mat.mapM1.filename
if mat.bumpmap != undefined then new_FSmat.NormalTex = mat.bumpmap.normal_map.filename

dotNet listview and checkboxes

This is a snippet of code where I want to control the checkboxes by multiple selections in the listview itself and hitting the checkbox (whether it is checked or not) to select / de-select them accordingly, trouble is when I do this it doesn't do them in one but for each item.

Basically, if I shift and select the items and check off the box the value counts down in real-time for the countLabelVal text.

Is there a dotNet way of doing this?

on lv ItemChecked do part of the code below is the trouble maker.
