That should read: new.array[x] = <some_value>;

Greetings:

I have a customer history table that contains several integer and decimal
arrays for recording sales and load count information for each of the 12
months. I'm trying to modify one of the arrays in a pre-update trigger. I'm
looping as in:

for x in 1..12 loop
array[x] = <some_value>;
.
.
.
end loop;

This will not compile. I get the following error:

ERROR: syntax error at or near "["

If I comment that line out, all works well. Any ideas?

Thanks...
