cut -f1 -d"," to a array and loop

############## SOLVE #############

Hi

I would like to do something quite simple but i could not figure it out

Example file:

Code:

BAS,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast Zero,CAD MASTER SWAP
BAS,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast Zero,CHF SWAP GOTTEX
BAS,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast Zero,CLP MONEY
BAS,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast Zero,CNY MONEY
BAS,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast ZeroSPEC,Fast Zero,COF DUMMY

Notice the last field containt space

I want to create array of this, then print it line by line

####################

Code:

array=($(cut -f5 -d"," $FILE))
 
        for array in "${array[@]}";
        do
            echo $array
            echo yes
        done

###################

wanted output:

Code:

CAD MASTER SWAP
yes
CHF SWAP GOTTEX
yes
....

but somehow my variable array containt only one argument with all my line on it like this, so my code return that

Code:

CAD MASTER SWAP
CHF SWAP GOTTEX
CLP MONEY
CNY MONEY
COF DUMMY
yes
