Subject: Dynamically creating capture mode templates

Hi all -

I was hoping someone could help me figure this out.  I have the
following in a .el file I am loading to create keys for my projects:

(setq projects '("Aa" "Bb" "Cc" "Dd")

(let (firstLetter)
  (dolist (project projects firstLetter)
    (setq firstLetter (substring project 0 1))
    (message "%s" firstLetter)
    (setq org-capture-templates
          (append org-capture-templates
                  '((firstLetter project)
                    ((concat firstLetter "t") "Todo" entry
(file+headline (concat org-directory "/default.org") project) "* TODO
%?"))))))

C-n (to activate capture mode)

org-mks: Wrong type argument: sequencep, firstLetter


but in the messages window, it prints the firstLetter variable -
shouldn't firstLetter be a string or char?

Anyway, I can't seem to get this to work - could anyone give me some
insight as to what I am missing?

Thanks!
