For Each Obj As igh_DocumentObject In GrasshopperDocument.Objects
  If (Obj.NickName = "LockMe") Then
    Dim comp As gh_activeObject = DirectCast(obj, gh_activeObject)
    comp.Locked = Not comp.Locked
  End If
Next

This does not work (only with some componentes/params). Error:

"An object expired during a solution".

D'oh!

Oh yeah, I got that too, but figured I would find out what to do about that next.

Thanks for the fast and accurate replies Marcus and Dani:)  
Have I understood correctly if I say I need to cast to GH_ActiveObject (or GH_Component or - indeed Marcus - System.Object) to get access to the components Locked property?
Thanks!

You cannot change the state of the document while a solution is being computed. You need to make your changes after or before a solution runs. One way to do this is to put your logic inside a menu or window (the mouseclicks won't be handled until after a solution is done) or to schedule a solution on the document and use the callback method to trigger your changes. There are also events associated with the beginning and ends of solution you can subscribe to.
