I m parsing a line like:

line = [feature-tributary/access_db.wxs:35:        <File Name="EmptyDB.mdb" Source="$(env.ARCHIVE_DIRECTORY)\access_db\DS Apps\Template\Database\FILE.mdb" KeyPath="yes" DiskId="2" Checksum="yes" Id="a621e7596dfcc45ffaec5fe2bb    a84a6f1" />]

Contents are in square brackets.

I just want to extract the file name with is in the value of Source attribute.
i.e. FILE.mdb

I tried doing 

1.   if ($line =~ m/(.*)Source="(.*)"\sKeyPath(.*)/) {

2.   if ($line =~ m/(.*)Source="(.*)\.(.*)"(.*)/o) {

3.   if ($line =~ m/(.*)Source="(.*)"(.*)/o) {

but none of them is giving me what is required. Even the $ sign in $env is messing out the output when i print on console.

Can someone help me or give pointers ?
