It may have the list split up, but the 4 lists are no where close to containing the same number of elements. The construct grabbing a subset of the array elements in ksh93 and recent versions of bash is not:
it is:
If we had a list of 10 files named 1 through 10 the four lists created by your code would be:
where the number before the colon is the number of files in the list and the numbers after the colon are the files in that list. (Note that files 7, 8, and 10 are in two lists and file 3 isn't in any list, and the number of files in the lists are 2, 5, 4, and 1.)
To get more even lists (and get each file in exactly one of your four lists), you could try something more like:
Which with the same list of 10 files produces the output:
Passing arrays to a function is tricky. The easier approach is to pass any fixed arguments as the 1st arguments to your functions and pass the filenames as a variable argument list with "${FILE_LIST_x[@]}".
Hope this helps...

Hi,
If this is the array that is being returned to me:
How would I get the values for each of the 3 records?

{
($id, $id2, $name, $date, $email) = split(/\|/, $item, 5);
print "$name<br>";
