Yes, and what's wrong? What would you expect? Show us the contents of test.awk and IDARR.

Use this

Code:
$ cat test.ksh
#!/bin/ksh

# some value
ID="1 2 3 4 5 6 7"

# Array
set -A IDARR $ID

# Echo array contents...
echo "From shell ${IDARR[*]}"

# Execute awk script
awk -f test.awk -v TempArr="${IDARR[*]}"

Code:
$ cat test.awk
BEGIN {

 # this is variable
 print "from awk", TempArr;

 # split variable contents into array with default FS space
 split(TempArr,NewArray)

 # print contents of NewArray we created above..
 for(i in NewArray)
 {
  print "index",i,"element",NewArray[i];
 }
}

Resulting
Code:
$ ksh test.ksh 
From shell 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
from awk 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
index 4 element 4
index 5 element 5
index 6 element 6
index 7 element 7
index 1 element 1
index 2 element 2
index 3 element 3

From terminal if you want to execute awk script try like this

Code:
$ awk -f test.awk -v TempArr="Hai hello world this is test"

Resulting
Code:
from awk Hai hello world this is test
index 4 element this
index 5 element is
index 6 element test
index 1 element Hai
index 2 element hello
index 3 element world
