I am a novice with arcpy.
I would like to use the arcpy.Select_analysis to select a featureclass with a selection based on an attibute and a txtfile.
All is working except that the where clasue does not like it when I try to install a variable. Such as:
arcpy.Select_analysis(fromFC, line[:-1]+"\\output_temp", exp)
the FromFC is the FC I am coping from.
the line[:-1]+"\\output_temp" is the FC I am pushing the selection of the FromFC to, ans
exp is the expression - exp = '"SystemOwner" = \'Rockingham\''
Rockingham is in the place I would like to put the variable as I have several towns to run through. I am not sure of the syntax by which to add the variable, as defined in an open statement for a textfile.
Any ideas or suggestions?
