This function copies Unicode 'string' into field 'field_name' of the
given attribute.


Specific Errors:
    PK_ERROR_bad_name               (MILD) The attribute does not have a field
                                           with this name
    PK_ERROR_field_of_wrong_type    (MILD) The field is not a ustring field
    PK_ERROR_bad_value              (MILD) The field data is in some way
                                           invalid for the intended field.
    PK_ERROR_not_same_length        (MILD) The 'attrib' is a no-roll attribute
                                           and the length of 'string' is not
                                           equal to the existing field length


The new data replaces any existing data stored in the field.

If a zero length string or NULL is given as the 'string' argument, the
field is set to be empty.

Unicode defines a special 16-bit character (the Byte Order Mark: U+FEFF)
which is used to signal the byte serialization used by a particular
computer architecture. If a Unicode string is presented to Parasolid
with this marker reversed (ie, the first element is the sequence U+FFFE)
then Parasolid will reverse the byte order of the given 'string';
subsequent enquiries will receive a correctly ordered sequence for the
current machine.
