  Don't use double quotes in your create table stanza. You can use them on
the table name with alter table and insert into.

  The data type is VARCHAR(), not character varying[].

  Why are you altering the table to be exactly how you defined it?

  Use single quotes to define text strings in your values statements.

  Perhaps you'll find value in reading a book on SQL. Rick van der Lans and
Joe Celko both write outstanding books on the language and its use.
