Need to parse lines in a file into two words and assign the values to two variables
For example, I have a file with below lines containing VOB tags and VOB paths.
Code:
* /vobs/fts/FTSUSM20_VOB  /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/eml/FTSUSM20_VOB 
* /vobs/fts/FTS20_VOB  /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/eml/FTS20_VOB 
* /vobs/pmv/PMS_VOB    /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/cpm/_/PMS_VOB 
* /vobs/compub/TMNcompub  /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/cpm/_/TMNcompub 
* /vobs/PARSER.vob0    /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/eml/PARSER.vbs
* /vobs/SH5.vob0       /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/eml/_/SH5.vob0 
* /vobs/SH5.vob1       /ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/eml/_/SH5.vob1

Here, I need to parse each line and assign VOB TAG as a separate variable and VOB path as a separate variable.
vobs/fts/FTSUSM20_VOB should be the first variable.
/ccvobsslx01/projects/vobs/eml/FTSUSM20_VOB should be the second variable

Can the delimiter be a 'space' and / ?

After this, I will perform some operations with the VOBs..

Pls help me out if possible.
