Well I had the hope to only define the type used for this column in one place.
Now I needed an array of the same type do some procedural calculations.
I figured that the best way was to get an array of this type by copying the type used to fill the array.

Anyway I will declare the array the usual way then.

Thank you Merlin and Pavel for your quick answers

I don't think it's possible.  Can you give some more detail on what
you are trying to do?
