Assuming the fieldseparator is a semicolon and your fields don't have spaces, you can do something like:

Code:
awk -F\; '{print}' OFS=" " |
while read value1 value2 value3........
do
  # Actions
done

asp-perl

ASP-PERL(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					      ASP-PERL(1p)

NAME

       asp-perl - Apache::ASP CGI and command line script processor

SYNOPSIS

       asp-perl [-hsdb] [-f asp.conf] [-o directory] file1 @arguments file2 @arguments ...

	   -h  Help you are getting now!
	   -f  Specify an alternate configuration file other than ./asp.conf
	   -s  Setup $Session and $Application state for script.
	   -d  Set to debug code upon errors.
	   -b  Only return body of document, no headers.
	   -o  Output directory, writes to files there instead of STDOUT
	   -p  GlobalPackage config, what perl package are the scripts compiled in.

DESCRIPTION

       This program will run Apache::ASP scripts from the command line.  Each file that is specified will be run, and the $Request->QueryString()
       and $Request->Form() data will be initialized by the @arguments following the script file name.

       The @arguments will be written as space separated words, and will be initialized as an associate array where %arguments = @arguments.  As
       an example:

	asp-perl file.asp key1 value1 key2 value2

       would be similar to calling the file.asp in a web environment like

	/file.asp?key1=value1&key2=value2

       The asp.conf script will be read from the current directory for parameters that would be set with PerlSetVar normally under mod_perl.  For
       more information on how to configure the asp.conf file, please see < http://www.apache-asp.org/cgi.html >
