Hmm, are you just putting spaces between your names. You'll get a new
element in your array each time you press enter if you use "@array =
<STDIN>".
Can you confirm your input data is.
Sam[RETURN]
Mary[RETURN]
Joe[RETURN]
CTRL-Z[RETURN] (as you're on windows)
try printing $names[0] to prove the point, or print the entire array with...
foreach my $name (@names) {
print "==> $name\n";
}
Good luck
