ungroup selected = then crash

[Sarah]

This sounds more like the OS X Appearance Manager problem, which tends 
to cause a quit when selecting/deselecting/re-selecting objects. If you 
can work out how to duplicate the crash, try turning the Look & Feel to 
Mac OS Emulated. I'd bet that you can't duplicate it then.

Your script shouldn't cause a crash. At the most all it might do is 
give an error saying that the object doesn't exist but I have found 
that errors in pending messages are usually just ignored. If you really 
wanted to be careful, you could check that "the target" exists before 
doing the send.
