How can you find the geometry of a prop?

I realize this has probably been asked before, but I'm sucking buttermilk at trying to find it for myself. How can you locate the geometry of an object in the scene? I've tried looking in the Scene Info Tab, and the Parameters tab, Element Data, I can of course export the geometry, but I'd rather use a copy of the native obj. With some of the scenes they're easy to find because they have a corresponding Geometry folder but I wanted to have a look at at the source geometry; Particularly Aikanaro's props --I was never really quite happy with the way the floor looked. The exported geometry looked pretty terrible and I was wondering if the source geometry was just as freaky.

This is quite an old product I think and does state that it has an obj as well as a PP2
It may possibly be in a geometry folder within a poser style runtime folder.
At one time it was allowed to hold the Props Object code in the pp2 file. They then shifted to calling the obj files from a folder. You could open the PP2 file in a good Text editor and see if it holds the obj code.
It depends on which version of it you are using, this comes as Poser PP2 & OBJ and as DS1 or 2 ,DAZ scene files, it's also included free with DS4 as DUF and DSF, the Poser version is the only one with an actual geometry file you can use in other programs, the other two versions need to be exported from DS to get a geometry file you can use.
