Defining IDL structures given variable type, width and precision [message #54078]

Is there a trick to defining an IDL structure with the appropriate
variable types given that type, width and precision of each variable?
I am extracting data from a .dbf file, then using the envi_write_dbf
command to basically copy the dbf file, but I'm running into problems
with a string field in the original DBF that appears to be longer than
simply assigning that field during the create_struct portion to be '',
e.g.

structure=create_struct(structurename:'') <- how would I assign that
if I know the type is "7" (string), width=43, precision=0
