Eject CD (no luck, Sarah)

[Sarah]

I just followed your recipe exactly and it worked fine for me. I am also 
running OS X 10.1.5 but I did the Software update a while ago that 
updated AppleScript to 1.8 (I don't know if that is relevant).

Here are couple of things to try:
Use the AppleScript editor and try the script without Revolution. Open 
the Events window & the Result window so you can see exactly what is 
happening in the AppleScript. ("repeat with" is a valid AppleScript 
structure. )
When you are confident that the AppleScript works, then transfer it back 
to Revolution and see what happens. Execution error sounds more like a 
Transcript problem than an AppleScript one, so make sure the button 
script is OK and you don't have any invisible characters messing things 
up (I just copied & pasted from your email so you could start again with 
a new button and see if that fixes it.

I hope this helps,
Sarah
