Scripting question I'm really stuck

I have this bit of code that lists one database connection, the number at the end is a variable that is passed to a sql script to measure tablespace thresholds.

I would like to add more database to the list. If i did this for example

set -A list username password GASD2.world 80
set -A list username password GASD3.world 80
set -A list username password GASD4.world 80

I would only get the one connection for GASD4. Finding very hard to explain this but if anyone can help or point me in the right direction that would be great.

THE CODE I HAVE AT THE MOMENT IS BELOW

##########################################
set -A list username password GASD2.world 80

let elements=${#list[*]}
let i=-1

while (( ++i <= elements )); do
SPACE_REPORT
(( i = i +1))
done
##########################################
