 Dear Postgresers,
		  I seem to remember seeing this query before but have lost the relevant mail file.

I'm attempting to create an application which is best modelled using arrays of
arrays. I proceeded along the same lines as the example on p20 of the reference
manual but when I attempt a query similar to:

	retrieve (stuff.a[2][2])\g

I receive:	syntax error at or near "["

I'm now attempting to create an array type from scratch and would be grateful
for a brief explanation of how the "interesting stuff" is loaded into arrayp[0]
.....arrayp[array_size] (example p21)

Any help, pointers would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks in advance,

Dave.
