How do I quickly change the length of multiple notes (MIDI) from 0?

Got this MIDI drum track where all the kick notes have a length of 0 - how can I quickly (IE using ctrl-a for example) change them all to a value of say 10? I have tried event filter and while I can certainly select all the notes, there is no way I cna actually edit them. IIRC older versions of Sonar used to then open a secondary box that allowed one to then edit the selected notes. How is it done these days? hahaha been a while (long) since I have done this sort of midi editing.
 
thanks

Select all the notes and drag out one of them.
 
When you say a length of 10 ? I have no idea what you mean, you mean ticks ? 10 ticks ?
You can also use Quantize. Select all notes, press Q to bring up the quantize menu. Select the box that says note value/length. Then set a length. Click OK.

You can easily do this in the Event Inspector (in the Control Bar) - just select the notes you want changed then enter the desired value in the box.

Or from PRV, select all, hold shift while changing the length of one, and they will all change to the length of the note you're changing.
