on ChangeProp theList, existingProp, newProp
theValue = getAProp(theList, existingProp)
if voidp(theValue) then
-- this property wasn't found
-- put up an error message if you want to
-- or whatever
return
end if
deleteProp(theList, existingProp) -- out with the old
addProp(theList, newProp, theValue) -- in with the new
end
