Kari--

I've never had much luck using "with properties" while creating a tint. Instead, try something like:



tell application "InDesign 2.0.1" 
    tell document 1 
        try 
            set myTint to tint 1 whose name is "PANTONE 1805 U" and tint value is 50 
        on error 
            set myTint to make tint with data {color:color "PANTONE 1805 U"} 
            set tint value of myTint to 50 
        end try 
    end tell 
end tell 




This works for me, anyway.

Thanks,

Ole
