With AMEMBERS() you can get an array for all the properties. Write a loop to check all rows in the array where the second column = "Property" (AMEMBERS() also collects events and methods), and write them to disk in a suitable format. That latter part may turn out to be the real challenge, 'cause a memo-type property may contain embedded line-breaks, quotation marks, etc. It is probably safest to write each property into a separate memo field.
