I remember some gotchas with array properties. The code looks ok, but I'd code it to make certain all assumptions are met

local....
loPara = oChild.DataParameters  && if item or getkey are arrays, perhaps do acopy ?
lnEnd = loPara.COUNT && we are betting against doc, so....
FOR i = 1 TO m.lnEnd
	cPar = loPara.GETKEY(i)
	xVal = loPara.ITEM(i)
        store .f. to llOk, llOkMeth &&& case of error and garbled error handling
	llOk = addproperty(oChild, cpar, xval)
        if ! m.llOk
           *** log perhaps as 1. step
	   llOkMeth = oChild.ADDPROPERTY(cPar, xVal)
           if ! m.llOkMeth
               *** on purpose put result values in locals, had 1 case involving with... whre return stack was corrupted 
          endif
        endif
