Try something like this:



 
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"

	tell active document 
		set LayerToActive to layer "Text" 
	end tell

	set active layer of active window to LayerToActive 
end tell 




But... Why do you want to active a layer ?
You can work on some items of a layer without "active" it.
