OK, that explains the odd behavior I was seeing. I decided to use the code below. While not as elegant, it works!



var doc = app.activeDocument;

var spread = doc.masterSpreads[0]; 
var oPageItems = spread.allPageItems; 
for (var i = 0; i < oPageItems.length; i+=1) {      if (oPageItems[i].label.match(/Tab(Right|Left)/)) {          // Do something here.      }  }



Thanks for the generous help.

Rick
