what am I doing wrong with getProperty()?

I'm attempting my first custom table to show the lengths of all Freeform Splines in a part studio. I've been able to make it show the lengths and highlight the right curves, but for some reason I'm not able to get the names of the curves to show up. I'm out of time and ideas for today so I thought I'd ask here on my way out. I have a feeling it's something small that's off. Any insight?

    From a 10 second glance: bodies have names, not edges and I think you're getting edges with your query.  qOwnerBody should do it.

    That was exactly it. I still don't understand how/why I got a reply from you in just a few minutes in the middle of a Saturday, but I'm very grateful.

    @Evan_Reese Thanks for asking this. This quick note from Ilya solved a long-standing problem I had. I thought there was no way to name splines! I can also delete a feature request I made for that.
