Chris,
You need parens around the four variables, and use a quoted string instead of a regexp....
($date, $activity, $owner, $id) = split( " ", $string );
should do it

Bill,
Another simplier challenge:
I need to put each string prior to a space into a seperate variable. Here is my string:
05-Dec-01.10:00:50 activity011204.221111 CLUNGU "(31246)"
Here is my command to dump the 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
I thought that the \s+ - will return 1 or many spaces between, hence split the string into the (4) buckets using a space as the delimiter.
Thanks in advance for the help
