row.setValue

Question

I have several working scripts that are updating the value of attribute tables using the row.setValue(attribute_Field, New_Value) syntax.

However, with a new script I am writing I get the following error:  "'NoneType' object has no attribute 'setValue'"

Has anyone else run into this problem?  The previous script still run on the same machine.

I figured it out last night.  I was trying to write the attribute in the same for loop as the feature(s) were being added to the feature classes.  To fix it, I created 1 for loop to add the feature geometries and a second for loop, that ran after all the features were added to the feature class, that would write all of the attribute information.

The error message tells you that row isn't a row but None. To find out why, look for assignements saying row = whatever that are executed before the setValue line.
