My interbase DB contains array fields. Whenever I try to add data to the
field I get
"Variant method calls not supported". I am updating the field as follows:

tblMyTable['Name'].AsString[i] := RecArray.Name[i];
also tried:
tblMyTable['Name'][i].AsString := RecArray.Name[i];

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? It's probably something
simple
and most definitely stupid <grin>.

Thanks.

I have never used Interbase array fields, and steered away from them for
one simple reason:  You cannot update a single array element
independently, you have to write to every element in the array no matter
how many you want to update.  I think the requirements are so stringent
as to require you to update the array field in one pass with a variable
dimensioned to the same as the array field in the table.  This is
detailed in the InterBase help file.  It's really buried, and I can't
remember where it is.
