You could use this, something I saved along the way. I *think* it's from the stdLib by Ken Ray and Richard Gaskin, but I've lost track.
on deleteCustomProperty tObjRef,tPropSet,tProp
-- not sure where this comes from, it's not mine
-- thanks to <whoever> !
put the custompropertyset of tObjRef into oldPropSet
set the custompropertyset of tObjRef to tPropSet
put the customkeys of tObjRef into keysList
set the wholematches to true
put lineoffset(tProp,keysList) into propLine
if propLine <> 0 then
delete line propLine of keysList
set the customkeys of tObjRef to keysList
end if
set the custompropertyset of tObjRef to oldPropSet
end deleteCustomProperty

This works fine. However I can delete the name of the object from the list of objects in the custom property?
