SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY

Question

Dear friends,
does anybody know how can I manage to update the SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,1003,1) to SDO_ELEM_INFO_ARRAY(1,3,1) in a Oracle Spatial geometry object?
Thank you very much for your help.

Dan,
This didn't work when I tried it:
update gps_test a set a.geom.sdo_elem_info=mdsys.elem_info_array(1,3,1)
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: invalid column name
I can update a single geometry this way:
create or replace procedure elem_info_proc as
myGeomIn MDSYS.SDO_GEOMETRY := null;
begin
select a.GEOM into myGeomIn from gps_test a;
myGeomIn.sdo_elem_info(1) := 1;
myGeomIn.sdo_elem_info(2) := 3;
myGeomIn.sdo_elem_info(3) := 1;
commit;
insert into gps_test_copy values(myGeomIn);
End;
And the resulting geometry is in another table.
This is no good for updating a table with more than one geometry.
