Hi monks, is it possible to use something like this? 

while (<FILE>)
{
   chomp;
   my ($key, $rest) = split /-/;
   push @{$hash{$key}},$rest;
  
}
$l=14178439;
  @values= exists $hash{$l}? @hash{$l}:undef;
{
print "\n Hash Value of 14178439 : @{$hash{$l}} \n";
}

Hash Value of 14178439 : 2,3242342,2343242 3,234432,123123 2,34343

Hash key :14178439       Hash Val:2,34343,
