[comp.text.tex] itemize, need help

Hi Netters,
I have a little problem with using the eqnarray-environment in connection
with the itemize/enumerate-environment.

What I did is this:
	\begin{enumerate}
		\item				% this HAS to be empty
			\begin{eqnarray*}	% for simplicity
				a & = & b	% Some stuff for the array
			\end{eqnarray*}
		\item				% this is also empty
		...
	\end{enumerate}
which produces something like:
	(i)					<--- I don't want these lines
						<--- to be empty
			a = b
	(ii)					% and so on for the rest

I really would like to have it this way:
	(i)		a = b			% with NO empty lines

	(ii)					% and so on ...

I tried using \vskip and \vspace and also \vspace* to align the top of the
eqnarray with the item-number to no effect. I tried to put the \vskip ...
inside or outside of the eqnarray itself, also no effect.

ANY help concerning will be welcome, so thanx in advance...
