How to return a string from a Python expression

987 1 1

In an integer field, I can write a Python expression like

bob = 312
return bob

which evaluates to 312.

However, if I do:

my_test = "cool_string"
return my_test

It doesn't evaluate to `cool_string`

Any thoughts? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!
Anson
