Hi. It would be nice to have a name so that we knew who we were talking to! The stuff you've written above isn't Perl. These lines @array = split/([EMAIL PROTECTED])/, $UPN; $UPN2 = @array[0]; are fine, but Token=primaryntaccount:: %ntaccount% = (\\w+).*$ and Token=$UPN2:: %ntaccount% = (\\w+).*$ look like batch file commands to me. They certainly won't compile under any Perl that I know about. It may help if you show us a little more context.
