Kenneth,

Thanks for taking time to go through my post... You hit the nail on the head... $VAR1 now returns:

$VAR1 = {
    '[SvrStatus]' => 'DEVELOPMENT',
    '[ApproxUsers]' => 151,
    '[AsstNo]' => 'AS012345',
    '[ServerLocation]' => 'XDC 1 5 34',
    '[OSVersion]' => '5.0',
    '[ServerServiceNo]' => 'CD123DC321',
    '[ServerDescription]' => 'App Server',
    '[IPAddress1]' => 'XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX',
    '[ServerDomain]' => 'XYZ'
};

Now all I have to do is figure out how to split this up into the individual fields. I need them to be assigned to:

$EVENT->{'slots'}->{'NTSD_SvrStatus'}
$EVENT->{'slots'}->{'NTSD_ApproxUsers'}
$EVENT->{'slots'}->{'NTSD_AsstNo'}etc...

[download]

Onwards and upward...

Many thanks
