Unless I've misread the above, you're wanting to store the array as a hash element. If so, the following should illustrate one way to do it:
my @array = qw (ident RDP_Ident Radar_Site_Ident site_x site_y Useful_Vol_Upper Useful_Vol_Lower Useful_Vol_North Useful_Vol_South Useful_Vol_East Useful_Vol_West Rotation Rotation_x Rotation_y Reserved QNH_Datum terminator chksum ); my %Idents; $Idents{ Format_7 } = \@array; foreach my $element (@{$Idents{ Format_7 }}) { print "$element\n"; }

If things get any worse, I'll have to ask you to stop helping me.
