Try this one:
Code:
#!/bin/sh

FILES=/abc/def
ARCH=/fff/ddd

cd ${FILES}
find . -name "*.txt" -type f -mtime +10 | xargs -r -t -I {} tar -czvf filetar.tar.gz "{}"
mv filetar.tar.gz ${ARCH}
status_check=$?
if [ ${status_check} -ne 0 ]
then
	echo "Error"
else
	echo "Success"
	find . -name "*.txt" -type f -mtime +10 -exec rm -f {} \;
fi

It will print all files being added to the gzip file!
Code:
# find . -name "*.txt" -type f -mtime +10 | xargs -r -t -I {} tar -czvf filetar.tar.gz "{}"
tar -czvf filetar.tar.gz ./teste2.txt
./teste2.txt
tar -czvf filetar.tar.gz ./teste.txt
./teste.txt
# ls -l filetar.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r--  1 jboss jboss 154 Nov 16 15:01 filetar.tar.gz

I hope it heps! =o)

The function zip_add adds a file to a zip archive, while zip_replace replaces an existing file in a zip archive. The argument archive specifies the zip archive to which the file should be added. name is the file's name in the zip archive (for zip_add ), while index speci- fies which file should be replaced (for zip_replace ). The data is obtained from the source argument. See the zip_source_* functions cited in SEE ALSO. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, zip_add returns the index of the new file in the archive, and zip_replace returns 0. Otherwise, -1 is returned and the error code in archive is set to indicate the error. EXAMPLES
struct zip_source *s; if ((s=zip_source_buffer(archive, buffer, len)) == NULL || zip_add(archive, name, s) 0) { zip_source_free(s); printf("error adding file: %s0, zip_strerror(archive)); } ERRORS
