What shell are you running?

Here is an example of a bash array. These values are split from a CSV line:

declare -a varray
for aline in `cat $USERFILE`
do
  varray=(`echo $aline | awk '{ split($0, ulist, ","); for(i=1; i<=11; i++) printf ulist[i] " "; }'`)

Note: Doing this in bash is horribly slow & $USERFILE is not /etc/passwd, it is another file.
