If it is the CSV parsing cauusing the problem the following might help:

require Text::CSV;
my $csv = Text::CSV->new;

open( FH, "<$fh" ) || die "Error: no open for $fh: $!";

foreach (<FH>) {
            if ( $csv->parse($_) ) {

                my @field = $csv->fields;
                my ( $Emp_ID, $Emp_Name ) = @field;

              
                   push(@id, $Emp_ID);
                   push(@names, $Emp_Name);
               
                }
  
}    # end foreach

close(FH);

Assuming everything else in place the above code should read a file and give you two arrays, one of names one of IDs.

More esteemed monks can I am sure point out better ways of doing this, I'm sure. I justy wated to give an example of Text::CSV for you to look at.
