remember, your split is returning an array, so you need the parentheses around the grouped scalar variables.  
($Activity_Date,$Activity_ID,$Activity_Owner,$Activity_Name) = split (/\s+/,$Activity_Detail_Line); 
 


 > It is returning: 
 > Results of the split is: Date: ID: Owner: Name:4  
These results look like they're coming from your variable names, somehow.  Or $Activity_Detail_Line isn't what you think it is.\
 
Good luck,
