Обсуждение: ERROR: array_in: Need to specify dimension

New to postgres and trying to create a simple table with a text
(variable length) column and getting the following error:

An error occured in pgAdminII:frmSQLOutput.cmdSave_Click:

Number: -2147467259
Description: ERROR: array_in: Need to specify dimension

Here's the schema:

-- Table: public.client
CREATE TABLE public.client (
  clientid int4 NOT NULL,
  name varchar(50),
  comment text[],
  CONSTRAINT client_pkey PRIMARY KEY (clientid)
) WITH OIDS;

Any suggestions?

remove the '[]' characters, if all you want is a variable length string column, they are unneeded.

That's 'C/++' syntax in that usage!

Was the error from the create or an insert (I'd gather the latter)?  In
any case, are you really sure you wanted an array of variable length text
objects (text[]) rather than just one variable length text object (text)?
