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.

I forgot about save to memo.

I think this is better than the solution I proposed. Mainly, it is much easier than writing a loop, and allows you to save everything into a single memo field.
