	     (not (initget 1 "circle square "))
  	     (setq ans (getkword "\nChoose Visibility [circle/square]: ")))
       	(repeat (setq i (sslength ss))
	  	(setq blk (vlax-ename->vla-object (ssname ss (setq i (1- i)))))
	  	(cond [b][color="blue"]([/color][/b](and
			   (eq (vla-get-IsDynamicBlock blk) :vlax-true)
		       	   (setq dp (car
				    (vl-remove-if-not
				      '(lambda (k)
					 (eq
					   (vla-get-PropertyName
					     k
					   )
					   [b][color="blue"]"Visibility1"[/color][/b]
					 )
				       )

					blk
					'GetDynamicBlockProperties
				      )
				    )
				  )

Not sure where you get that "*" on the lambda function , besides i was missing a pair of parenthesis.

 

"Visibility1" is the visibility parameter name on your DBlock. This code wont do a thing if the name does not match.

Here is my code as of today

(defun c:set1 (/ ss ans i blk dp scale)
 
 (if (and (setq ss (ssget "_:L" '((0 . "INSERT"))))
     (not (initget 1 "1:1 1:2 1:2.5 1:5 1:10 1:20 1:25 1:50 1:100 1:200 1:250 1:500 1:1000 1:2000 1:2500 1:5000 1:50000 "))
  (setq ans (getkword "\nChoose Visibility [1:1/1:2/1:2.5/1:5/1:10/1:20/1:25/1:50/1:100/1:200/1:250/1:500/1:1000/1:2000/1:2500/1:5000/1:50000]: ")
   ))
  
 (repeat (setq i (sslength ss))  
    (setq blk (vlax-ename->vla-object (ssname ss (setq i (1- i)))))
    (cond (and
      (eq (vla-get-IsDynamicBlock blk) :vlax-true)
             (setq dp (car
        (vl-remove-if-not
          '(lambda (k)
      (eq
        (vla-get-PropertyName
          k
        )
        "RMS_SCALE_VIS"
      )
           )
          (vlax-invoke
     blk
     'GetDynamicBlockProperties
          )
        )
      )
      )
         (if (eq ans "1:1") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_1"))
                (if (eq ans "1:2") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_2"))
         (if (eq ans "1:2.5") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_2.5"))
         (if (eq ans "1:5") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_5"))
         (if (eq ans "1:10") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_10"))
         (if (eq ans "1:20") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_20"))
         (if (eq ans "1:25") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_25"))

         (if (eq ans "1:100") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_100"))
         (if (eq ans "1:200") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_200"))
         (if (eq ans "1:500") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_500"))
         (if (eq ans "1:1000") (setq scale "RTA_SCALE_1000"))

          (vlax-put dp 'Value scale)
