Attribute Assistant - Expressions: Why am I getting a Type mismatch error with IFF?
Attribute Assistant - Expressions: I am getting an error with my IFF expression that I cannot figure out how to resolve.
I am using Version 3.1.17 of the Attribute Assistant.
Here is my configuration values:
| TABLENAME | FIELDNAME | VALUEMETHOD | VALUEINFO |
| Building | CityVillage | EXPRESSION | IFF(isNull([CityVillage]), [Township], [CityVillage]) |
Here is the error log:

The goal is to copy the Township value to the CityVillage field if the CityVillage is null and do nothing if it isn't null. I have tried to use the following expression, but get the same error: IFF(isNull([CityVillage]), [Township], "<NULL>").
I even downloaded the AA source code and traced through it to see why it was failing.
It fails on the following line of code:
Looking at what the string newValue has stored prior to the above call is IFF(True, \"Oakland\", \"\")
I have look at other posts, but haven't found anything that helped.
Does anyone know what could be causing this?
