Thank you, that works. However, now I am still having issues with my original XML above. Using:

my $doc = $xs1->XMLin($file, forcearray => 1, keyattr => {client_syste
+m => 'Customer Care'});
[download]

then Data::Dumper gives me output like this:

Sorry for the mess but I'm tired of formatting. Anyway, I basically want to get all of the interval=>names for the business_area client_system and I have:

my $doc = $xs1->XMLin($file, forcearray => 1, keyattr => {client_syste
+m => 'Customer Care'});

foreach my $key (keys (%{$doc->{client_system}})){
    if($key eq 'business_area') {
        print $doc->{client_system}[$key]->{component}[0]->{component_
+lib}[0]->{class_set}[0]->{base_class_set[0]->{interval}{'range'}, "\n
+";
    }
}
[download]

or something like that. Just confused with the syntax on the print command. Probably also have to loop through again to get all the interval names. Thanks in advance
