InDesign CS requires that the name of "applied paragraph style" in the

And yet it seems case sensitive about it elsewhere:
tell application "InDesign 2.0.2"
make document
tell document 1
make paragraph style with properties {name:"Blah"}
exists paragraph style "blah" --> false
exists paragraph style "Blah"
make text frame with properties {contents:"x" & return & "y"}
set applied paragraph style of paragraph 1 of parent story of text
frame 1 to paragraph style "Blah"
search parent story of text frame 1 with find attributes {applied
paragraph style:paragraph style "Blah"}
search parent story of text frame 1 with find attributes {applied
paragraph style:paragraph style "blah"} with case sensitive
end tell
end tell
Odd.
I happened to get two scripts that were all but identical up at the
same time, and when one worked and the other didn't, I was able to
track it down. I gotta say, it would have taken me _weeks_ to get
from "doesn't understand the search message" to "I can't find a style
by that name."
After that, it was just a matter of updating for normal kinds of
application revision changes
FWIW, there are a lot of them. Text handling has changed a lot, in
particular. More like native AppleScript with ranges.
