@atulod1 please add more details on what you need to extract using rex. Based on the data seems like you are you are using Windows Event Viewer Logs which should be automatically extracted as fields in Splunk.

Also while posting question on Splunk Answers make sure you mask/anonymize any sensitive information like User Id, database, Computer Name etc.
