Hey everyone,I am trying to test for a field called "SITE" in any annotation feature classes within a workspace (File gdb) I've been running a few scripts, but I keep getting hung up on the same error message:
ERROR 999999: Error executing function.
Expected end of statement
Failed to execute (CalculateField).
I have a feeling the addfield and calculate field do not like each other in the "else" portion of my loop. I've tried different loop types, but the same error keeps coming up. I did a quick model with these 2 tool and then exported to a python script and they seem to have worked there. Any suggestions?Thanks,Mike
import arcpy
from arcpy import env
env.workspace = r"Z:\ESRI\Figure_Sourcing\Figures\Geodatabase\D09_IF_PDA_CR.gdb"
SITE = "D09 Infill"
fcListAnno = arcpy.ListFeatureClasses("*", "Annotation")
for fcAnno in fcListAnno:
print fcAnno
fieldListAnno = arcpy.ListFields(fcAnno, "SITE")
print fieldListAnno
if not arcpy.Exists(fieldListAnno):
print "Does not exists"
arcpy.AddField_management(fcAnno, "SITE", "TEXT", "", "", 50)
arcpy.CalculateField_management(fcAnno, "SITE", SITE, "VB", "")
else:
print "Exists"
arcpy.CalculateField_management(fcAnno, "SITE", SITE, "VB", "")
