There is some stuff here (like $counter) that makes me think there is probably some funky code not shown here, but just working with what you've shown...

my @years = qw[05 04 03 02 01 00 99 98]; foreach my $year (@years) { foreach my $BulletinID (keys %AllPatches) { next if (substr($BulletinID,2,2) ne $year); next unless ($MissingPatchList{$BulletinID} || $FoundPatchList +{$BulletinID}); if ($counter == 7) { print HTML "</tr><tr>\n"; $counter = 0; } $MissingPatchList{$BulletinID} = sprintf("%04d",$MissingPatchL +ist{$BulletinID} || 0); $FoundPatchList{$BulletinID} = sprintf("%04d",$FoundPatchList{ +$BulletinID} || 0);

We're not surrounded, we're in a target-rich environment!
