    It's probably worth not doing this is you can avoid it. Capture CIS gets "most" of the BOM properties from a database, rather than load the schematic with them. Capture BOM can use an Include, INC, file, this is a text file with a "key" field and the BOM then gets the additional properties from the Include file, rather than load the schematic. If you really MUST load the properties into the schematic, you can use File>Export>Properties to export the properties to a tab delimited text, EXP, file, add the additional properties and save teh modified tab delimited text file, and then use File>Import>Properties to get the properties back to the schematic (or library).
