Maria,

You mean your array has a variable size, which you need to know in order to properly construct a query?

Dunno much about arrays, but here http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.3/static/arrays.html is said that array_upper( your_array, 1 ) returns the upper bound of the array...

Can this be what you need...?

Best,
Oliveiros

Subject: [SQL] Accessing array datatype

Hi All,
I have an array column in a table.
How can I fetch the elements separately( ie, select arr[1],arr[2]...arr[n]) as a column,
when I don't know how many elements are there in the array?

Thanks for your help.

Maria
