The getPropAt() command gets you the property at a specific index, whereas 
the getAt() command gives you the value at a specific index.

Thus (using old Lingo):

numItems =count(myList)
repeat with x=1 to numItems
   thisProp =getPropAt(myList, x)
   thisVal =getAt(myList, x)
   contents =thisProp & ":" & thisVal
   put contents         -- Puts to message window but you could put anywhere
end repeat

Of course, now that you're going through the list, you could check for 
specific property values, or whatever...
