I recall reading someplace that it is possible to set all elements of an
array to a given variable using the syntax 'array(*) = value'.  Am I out
to lunch?  The actual behaviour seems to be that only the first element of
the array is assigned the given value.

Correct, it'll assign the same value to each element of the array. Ican't think of any exceptions that would cause only the first element tobe set. Can you post an example?
