However if I loop through the $_FILES array like this:

foreach( $_FILES as $key => $value ){
echo '$key = '.$key.'<br />';
echo '$value = '.$value.'<br />';
}

$key = File_1_CSV
$value['name'] = File_1.CSV
$key = File_2_CSV
$value['name'] = File_2.CSV

The . is replaced with an underscore in the $key value. I could get around
this with a substr() but it seems a little inelegant, can anyone tell me why

this is happening please?

Periods are not allowed in variable names and are replaced by an underscore.
You could use regex to do the replacement so that you can do comparison.
