Reading Properties from external file always.

I am using SOAP UI 2.0.2 version.

We can load properties from an external file with the help of ${Test Properties#key} and then these properties gets copied under the project xml in the <con:value> tags.
However, if my properties in external file changes, i need to re-load the properties in my project again.
Is there a way read the properties from external file always (as their value could change over time) ?

I am running the SOAPUITestCaseRunner from a Java application , which execute the SOAP Projects. So i want that whenever the property file values are changed , i need not re-load the properties using SOAP UI interface.

I tried changing the savefirst property from 'true' to 'false' int the SOAP Project.xml , but the SOAPUITestCaseRunner is not picking up
the updated values.

Please help. An early reply will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick
