I'm looking at line 697 of spells.2da: the label is "ACTIVATE_ITEM_L" and the associated name in dialog.tlk is "Activate Item (Long Range)".
I think that line is referred to in iprp_spells.2da line 513, which also refers to the same TLK entry.
How, if at all, can I assign this to an item as a property? I'm groping toward an understanding of item properties, but I'm obviously still ignorant of how it all connects together.
I have previously edited my spells.2da to change line 386 (ACTIVATE_ITEM) from Short range to Long, which seems to have affected all items that use the property "Cast Spell: Unique Power" and I'm wondering if I should have been using some other long-range property rather than editing my spells.2da at all.
Did that rambling even make any sense? Thanks for your patience if you've gotten this far. :innocent:

ACTIVATE_ITEM_L shows in toolset as "Cast Spell: Activate Item (Long range)"

Wow, thank you. I am embarassed. I looked for that twice and couldn't find it, but there it is now. Probably looked straight at it.
Edit: Since I'm posting, I might as well ask: is there any difference between Cast Spell: Unique Power and Cast Spell: Activate Item, other than range? If I'm reading correctly (and we've seen how good my reading is), they use the same impact script.

If you still need a better understanding of how it all ties together you can read the item format.
