so... what have you tried? Are you concerned about total number of licenses of all products or each product? Either way it is a fairly straight forward detection of what lines you are on

if ( $line =~ m@Users of Product@ ) { $line =~ m@Product(\d+):@; # match and capture product number $product = $1l
and tallying the user's product usage
$line = s/\s+//; #get rid of the leading spaces my @f=split(/[\s\t]+/,$line); my $user=$f[0]; # if our hash does not contain an entry for our user $counter{$user} = [] if ( ! defined($counter{$user}) ) ; $counter{$user}->{$product}++;
Once you have your counts I'm sure you can work out how to calculate percentages. As far as making your script send email there are plenty of articles on that on PM (try a super search) and my own blog has examples of how to do that (offsite link) here.
