Not bad for a first try. first, learn about BB "code" tags. That helps a bit!

Anyway, it turns out there's a UNIX utility to do what you need. It's called "find".
Code:
awk '{ print $1 }' /appl/pro/eftids | 
while read DIRECTORY; do 
  find $DIRECTORY -type f -name "*.TRN" -print 
done > /tmp/found-trn-files.$$

# You can put this inside or outside the above loop. 
if ! [ -s /tmp/found-trn-files.$$ ]; then
  echo '!!LOG ERROR. The following files were not converted:'
  cat /tmp/found-trn-files.$$
fi
# cleanup
rm /tmp/found-trn-files.$$

The other way is to have a loop-within-a-loop, like this;
Code:
awk '{ print $1 }' /appl/pro/eftids | 
while read DIRECTORY; do 
  /bin/ls -1 $DIRECTORY/trans1/ |
  while read FILE ; do 
     if ! echo $FILE |grep '\.TR[XZ]$' &>/dev/null  ; then
        echo '!!LOG ERROR .... ' $FILE in $DIRECTORY
     fi
  done
done

dbus-cleanup-sockets(1) 				      General Commands Manual					   dbus-cleanup-sockets(1)

NAME

       dbus-cleanup-sockets - clean up leftover sockets in a directory

SYNOPSIS

       dbus-cleanup-sockets [DIRECTORY]

DESCRIPTION

       The dbus-cleanup-sockets command cleans up unused D-Bus connection sockets. See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/ for more informa-
       tion about the big picture.

       If given no arguments, dbus-cleanup-sockets cleans up sockets in the standard default socket directory for the per-user-login-session  mes-
       sage bus; this is usually /tmp.	Optionally, you can pass a different directory on the command line.

       On  Linux, this program is essentially useless, because D-Bus defaults to using "abstract sockets" that exist only in memory and don't have
       a corresponding file in /tmp.

       On most other flavors of UNIX, it's possible for the socket files to leak when programs using D-Bus  exit  abnormally  or  without  closing
       their  D-Bus connections. Thus, it might be interesting to run dbus-cleanup-sockets in a cron job to mop up any leaked sockets.	Or you can
       just ignore the leaked sockets, they aren't really hurting anything, other than cluttering the output of "ls /tmp"

       Please send bug reports to the D-Bus mailing list or bug tracker, see http://www.freedesktop.org/software/dbus/
