Search a string,get line and replace with second field

Hi,

I need to search for source path in file2 , as per file1 and if found get the next line and take the field value and put it in URL value of file1.
In file1, NF is not same for all the lines.

file1:
Code:
<type source="/home/USER/Desktop" Dest="/home/USER/DIR1/Desktop" URL="ssh/path"/>
<type source="/home/USER/OP1" URL="internet/external/path"/>
<type source="/home/USER/Exe" Dest="/home/USER/DIR1/Exe" URL="intranet/path/add"/>

file2:
Code:
<path source="/home/USER/Desktop" value="/home/USER/XYZ/Desktop">
    <key value="customer/priority"/>
    <scm tool="toolname/revision"/>
.... some line here
  </path>

<path source="/home/USER/OP1" value="/home/USER/XYZ/ABC/OP1">
    <key value="customer/priority2"/>
    <scm tool="toolname/revision"/>
.... few more lines
  </path>

<path source="/home/USER/Exe" value="/home/USER/XYZ/ABC/Exe">
    <key value="customer/priority4"/>
    <scm tool="toolname/revision"/>
.... few more lines
  </path>

code tried:
Code:
awk -F\" '/^<type/ {print $2}' file1 > a.xml
while read line
do
OUTPUT=`awk -F\" -v b="$line" '$0 ~ b {getline; print $2}' file2`
awk -F\" -v proj="$line" -v repl=ref/img/"$OUTPUT" '$0 ~ proj { $6=repl;print $0}' OFS=\" file1
done < a.xml > OUTPUT

Desired output:
Code:
<type source="/home/USER/Desktop" Dest="/home/USER/DIR1/Desktop" URL="ref/img/customer/priority"/>
<type source="/home/USER/OP1" URL="ref/img/customer/priority2"/>
<type source="/home/USER/Exe" Dest="/home/USER/DIR1/Exe" URL="ref/img/customer/priority4"/>

I appreciate your help.

PTYPE(3)						 MBK UTILITY STRUCTURE DEFINITIONS						  PTYPE(3)

NAME
ptype - mbk list of typed pointers DESCRIPTION
The ptype is used to save typed pointers in a list. The use of this structure is strongly recommanded, when such a need occurs. It is the case in the USER field of all mbk layout and netlist objects, where data specific to different proccessing may be accessed through this unique field. It is the charge of the user to give its pointers a type that will not collide with existing types. The declarations needed to work on ptype are available in the header file "/labo/include/mut315.h", where '315' is the actual mbk version. The following C structure describes the list of typed pointers : typedef struct ptype { struct ptype *NEXT; void *DATA; long TYPE; } ptype_list; NEXT Pointer to the next ptype of the list. DATA Generic pointer that may point where the user wants to. TYPE Identifier of the user of the pointed data. One shall not access someone else ptype since it doesn't know what's in it. This means also that a ptype user should free the space taken by its datas since it is the only one to know how to do it. Remark 1: a specialized memory allocator has been built in order to create and free ptype_lists, so absolutly avoid to create or free them an other way than through the access functions. Remark 2: Now a day, three tools are known to use the USER field of some mbk structures : VTIPARSER the parser of vti physical format '.cp' files uses the phcon(3) USER field. LOFIGCHAIN the lofigchain function constructs a dual representation of the netlist in the USER field of the losig(3) structure. PLACEABOX Genlib's physical placement functions, in order to have model sizes in instances. It uses the phins(3) USER field. SEE ALSO
mbk(1), addptype(3), freeptype(3), getptype(3), delptype(3). BUG REPORT
