Subject: Help! my hair room prop won't move with parented figure

I know I had this problem a number of years ago, and edited the pp2 file directly, but I have no clue what I did, and I'm having no luck searching online.

Basically, I created a skull cap for personal use from V4's head, and then grew hair from it. It was parented. Unfortunately, neither the item in the original scene nor the prop I saved to the library moves with V4. In fact, the skull cap itself will not translate whatsoever, although the individual hair group props can be moved with the translate dials.

I think I've found the correct general area in the pp2 file to edit in Notepad++, but it's too obtuse (or I am) for me to determine exactly what I need to edit.

(FWIW, I've also tried exporting the prop as a Wavefront obj, but that doesn't work. It crashes Poser, and even though a file is created, when I restart Poser and attempt to import it, it fails to load.)

Can anyone help me figure what I need to edit? Would hate to lose this work, but honestly I've probably already spent more time in attempted troubleshooting than I did creating the hair to begin with....

Using Poser 11, FWIW.
