Re: Populating a sparse array piecemeal in plpgsql

Thank you for your reply, but I don't really understand how to use this
information.
My problem is that I can put one value into this array, and that's it.
Any subsequent attempts to put another value elsewhere in the array are
rebuffed, saying that the subscripts are out of range.  I don't
understand what I would do "by hand" that would help this.
