I'm trying to use the above function to create a new field in my
current view. I want to use a variable containing a string constant
in the function. The problem is that even though I use options to
specify that it's a string, the expression outputs it as an integer.
Am I specifying the options field wrong?
i = 1
cntyfips = format(i,"000")
createExpression(newlayer,"County",cntyfips,{"String",3,0})
when I try it using just a constant eg
createExpression(newlayer,"County","'001'",{"String",3,0})
then it works, but I'm not sure how to do that with a variable.
Anyone have any ideas?
