But it was already "split apart" in the original code you showed, which used 
ba/bb/bc.  You said you took that code, and "then split it apart using h,I,j".

Which is it?

You didn't answer this question.

There is no code above which uses h/i/j, only ba/bb/bc.  (Well, except for 
my code, that is.  You haven't shown any of your code that uses h/i/j.)

Those are just the assignments to ba/bb/bc.  Are you having a problem with 
the assignments to those fields?

[... snip code using ba/bb/bc ...]

That's the code you already showed, with ba/bb/bc, which "doesn't work". 
You still haven't shown the code with h/i/j that does "work".

And show the code with h/i/j that "works".
