Why do I get a bad value error when I ran Calculate Field

DEAF_PROBERT_68 — Fri, 30 May 2025 16:42:09 GMT

As I type the word Replace in the field using Calculate field to replace the I- to 255, however I get this error message. Has anyone went through this error and got it to fix ?

I looked at the Text Functions on ArcGIS Arcade in the ESRI Developer exactly but do not know why... Maybe some of you can help me out...

You have $feature.SignSymbols wrapped in quotes, which makes it a string and not a reference to the feature.

So should I say or type it in as Replace($feature.SignSymbols, "I-", "22") ?

Won't the Replace function create a new value of "225225"? Is the goal to remove the "I-" and just have a value of "225"? Could you just select all the features with a sign symbol of "I-225" and do a simple calculation of "225" as the new value?

Actually the workaround I did was to use the select by attributes and then open the attributes in the selection menu and in the Attribute dialog box . Click at the layer name and then go down to the field and type that number....
