Can someone help me edit this script to be usable in InDesign CS3

myLib = app.libraries.item("Library.indl");
myFounds = app.activeDocument.search("[SampleLibrary Asset]");
for (j = myFounds.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
 app.select(myFounds[j]);
 myLib.assets.item("[SampleLibrary Asset]").placeAsset(app.activeDocument);
}

This use to work in InDesign CS2 but it not working in C2.
 I tried placing the script to /Applications/Adobe InDesign CS3/Scripts/Scripts Panel/Version 4.0 Scripts /. But it did not help.

Thanks in advance.

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
myLib = app.libraries.item("Library.indl");
app.findTextPreferences = app.changeTextPreferences = null;
app.findTextPreferences.findWhat = "[SampleLibrary Asset]";
myFounds = myDoc.findText();
for (j = myFounds.length - 1; j >= 0; j--) {
   app.select(myFounds[j]);
   myLib.assets.item("[SampleLibrary Asset]").placeAsset(myDoc);
}
app.findTextPreferences = app.changeTextPreferences = null;
