BIM Lisp function - ename?

fegis
fegis
in BricsCAD BIM
In this example. I have a cylinder. Classified it as a BIM Object. And i want to use the command:
(bim:pset-get-property ename propertyset name)

So in my lisp i will use: 
(vl-load-bim)
(bim:pset-get-property  "6BF" "Data"  "OBJECTID")
Should this return 123?
Instead i get: 
; ----- Error around expression -----
; (BIM:PSET-GET-PROPERTY "6BF" "Data" "OBJECTID")
;
; ----- LISP : Call Stack -----
; [0]...*ERROR* <<--
;
 acad.lsp Err: bad argument type <"6BF"> ; expected ENTITYNAME at [bim:pset-get-property]
Please can you point me in the right direction about ename / entityname

Many thanks in advance

    Hi,
    you need the entity name, not the handle of the object.

    See also this example script that is also shipped with Bricscad.

    If the handle is known, there is also
    (handent )
    which returns that ENAME entity name :
    (handent "6BF")
    or
    (BIM:PSET-GET-PROPERTY (handent "6BF") "Data" "OBJECTID")

    many greetings !
