Usually attempts at straightforward conversions from other solutions' queries to SPL fail due to differences in the paradigms of the languages and overally differently working internals.

The best chance to get useful advice is to:

1) Tell us what data you have (if it's a non-standard sourcetype, provide a sample)

2) Explain what result you want to achieve

3) Show what you have done so far and describe what isn't working as you expected

Remember that this is a community forum where people exchange knowledge and experience and volunteer to help each other, it's not a "free support service".
