Silly me, I read the manual again. That always gets me into trouble! Here is the segment in help about this:
"FROM ARRAY ArrayName
Specifies the name of an existing array whose contents are the name, type, precision, and scale for each field in the table. The contents of the array can be defined with the AFIELDS( ) function."
Thanks, your solution works fine.
Tom.
