change:

put "send Increment 1" && myType &&  the cPropTargetObjectName of me 
into myDoText

to

put "send" && quote& "Increment 1" & quote && myType &&  the 
cPropTargetObjectName of me into myDoText

(there is a space in "Increment 1" so rev tries to evaluate as a 
boolean)

put word 1 of the name of control <num>  into tObjName   or
put word 1 of the name of the Target  into tObjName
etc.
