Olivier-- 

You can't get the properties of text frame 1 of spread 1 because it's not there. The text frame you want is not yet a text frame on spread 1--it's a master page item. 

To create an instance of the master page item on spread 1, you need to use something like: 

set myTextFrame to master page item 1  

At that point, you have a text frame on spread 1, and can add content to it or get its properties. 

Thanks, 

Ole
