Assigning to a member of a NULL array has always yielded another NULL array. While I've never been particularly satisfied with that behavior either, it has some logical symmetry to it. What do you think the behavior ought to be? (In particular, if a non-null array should result, where do we get its dimensions and subscripts from?) regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
