Help with passing integer value in A.S.S

Question

I get an NSinternal script error while trying to pass this value can anyone help?
Also I wonder if it is possible to pass the value to a matrix
on clicked theObject
tell button "checkbox" of window 1
if integer value = 1 then
set button "checkbox2" of window 1 to integer value = 1
else
set integer value to 0
end if
end tell
end clicked
I also tried:
if state of button "checkbox" of window1 is 1 then
set the state of button "checkbox2" of window1 to 1
end if

I've been following this thread and trying to figure out how to make this work. I was getting inconsistent results or errors with most of the code that has been posted. But I finally got it working... at least on a Leopard machine (not sure if this could have changed between Tiger and Leopard so your mileage may vary).
What I found was that a checkbox button that's located directly in a window seems to have a state that's equal to 0 when it's unchecked and 1 when it's checked. But a checkbox cell that's contained within a matrix seems to have a state that's set to either _off state_ or _on state_. Trying to set a cell's state to 0 or 1 simply wasn't working right for me. So I get the state of the "selectall" checkbox button (which is a 0/1) and transform it to either "off state" or "on state" before setting the states of the checkbox cells in the matrix.
Here's my code:
on clicked theObject
set n to name of theObject
if n = "selectall" then
set s to state of theObject
log "state: " & s
if s = 0 then
set newState to off state
else
set newState to on state
end if
repeat with i from 1 to count of cells of matrix "directories" of window "main"
tell cell i of matrix "directories" of window "main"
set state to newState
end tell
end repeat
return
end if
if n = "logStatesBtn" then
logStates()
return
end if
end clicked
on logStates()
log "Logging states:"
set s to state of button "selectall" of window "main"
log "selectall checkbox: " & s
repeat with i from 1 to count of cells of matrix "directories" of window "main"
tell cell i of matrix "directories" of window "main"
set s to state
end tell
log "Cell " & i & ": " & s
end repeat
end logStates
Note the "logStates" handler is just something I connected up to a "logStatesBtn" button in my window that lets me spit out the states of all the checkboxes into the console log. This is how I actually discovered that the cells were set to "off state" or "on state".
