The fact that the property function id not being replaced by its value means that the
function is not being recognised.
This also happens if a non-existent variable is used. (Functions and variables are
treated much the same in JMeter).
There are various possibilities:
The function is not present in JMeter (but we know it works elsewhere)
The function name is misspelt (ditto)
JMeter is not processing variables or functions in that particular field for some
reason.
Might be worth trying with a variable instead of the function, but I suspect it would
give the same result.
If it did work, it would be a work-round.
It looks like a bug (or perhaps a feature) - anyone for Bugzilla?

Subject: RE: Placing __property() in a Filename field doesn't work
Hi again,
One mistake in the note, and one info omission.
The JRE parameter is given like :
-DoutputDir=MYOUTPUTDIR
not with the -J as shown below. Also, the result
is that the filenames running the Test Plan yields
look (literally) like the following.
${__property(outputDir)}wdprf001I.jtl
Thanks again.
Lee
