Right, so the problem seems to be the properties of subclasses.
(?a rdf:type myns:mammal) , (?a rdf:type ?x), (?y rdfs:domain ?x)
Is what I wanted.
In the above case, ?a can be be instances of people or mammals, which I hope
would be put into ?x. Then I would look for ?y (the properties) which have ?x
(people and mammals as a domain) - but that doesn't seem to work either.
Hmm. Even your query didn't work . I am using protege and it uses a different
rdfs for a namespace, perhaps this is a problem. I used my own RDFS namespace
but I guess rap didn't like it (it doesn't highlight as green when I print an
html table)
So I used createOntProperty() and addDomain to add the properties there.
So that solved the first problem.

I tried a new query and it worked. I didn't need to specify subClass because
inferencing is on.
WHERE (?a, rdf:type, myNS:Mammal) ,(?a, rdf:type, ?c) ,(?x, rdfs:domain,
?c) , (?a, ?x, ?y)
This got the results I desired, because not only did I get properties, I was
able to get the values of the properties.

Thanks for the feedback. For you to show that something worked, that should
have worked for me helped me figure out what the problem was! thanks again!
