Do you actually need an array? The shell has several ways to solve that kind of thing:

Code:
IFS=","
exec <file
read G # Ignore first line

while read LINE
do
        set -- $LINE
        echo "First column is $1"
        echo "Second column is $2"
        echo "And so forth"
done

which allows you to write code which will work in any shell.
