Adding fields to attributes VLA

[brandalf_the_semiGray]

I need help adding a field to an attribute using VLA. I've been looking through Lee Mac's copyField code, and have tried taking the pieces that put the field into the object but all I get is a string of text. It doesn't appear to even be the full string that represents my field either. 

 

How can I insert a field to an attribute?

I managed to get my field expression inserted. However the value for the field is just #### for all of my nested fields. 

 

I can click on the individual fields to view that field expression. It looks like all of them are populated properly. Any tips?

What is sysvar FIELDEVAL set to? Also have you tried REGENALL (vlax-invoke doc 'regenall) where doc is your document object

I figured it out by referencing a field expression i built manually that was the same thing i wanted. Thank you though!

Out of curiosity, do field expressions work in sheet set manager also?  That would be sweet as hell, if so.

Happy Friday everyone!
