          The following example shows how to switch the environment's numbering system from 1.1, 1.2, etc to a, b, etc -- and also how revert to the initial numbering system.

          section{Background}
          letorigproptheprop % save the current style
          renewcommandtheprop{alph{prop}} % change style
          setcounter{prop}{18} % just for this example
          begin{prop} Second one. end{prop}
          begin{prop} Third one. end{prop}
          begin{prop} Fourth one. end{prop}
