FYI, error code -1728 is not an InDesign error, but an AppleScript language error.
The list of errors can be found here:
http://developer.apple.com/documentation/AppleScript/Conceptual/AppleScriptLangGuide/AppleScript.10b.html#25763
Error -1728 is listed as "Can't get <reference>" and pops up whenever something
is missing (word 4 of "Hi there") or incorrectly referenced (word 4 of 123), for example.
