  I want an array of strings.  Here's sample code:

  String names[] = new String[10];
  names[0] = new String("Bob Smith");

  Which is apparently the correct syntax according to "Java By
Example" (from Sun).  However, I get error "(37) ']' expected, with
the cursor positioned after "names[" on the 2nd line.

  What's my mistake?

TIA
