ksh array updated by multiple scripts

Hello!

Is it possible to update an array created in a ksh script by a child script that was spawned by the parent?

So, if I have...

Code:

#!/bin/ksh

set -A myArray "Zero" "One" "Two"
echo "0: ${myArray[0]}"
echo "1: ${myArray[1]}"
echo "2: ${myArray[2]}"

./second_script.ksh ${myArray[*]}
echo "All: ${myArray[@]}"

exit 0

Then in the child script, add elements "Three" "Four" "Five" to the array. Then print or whatever, the array from the parent script?

If not, is there a way to do something like this?

Thanks in advance.
