That's the expansion of asterisk (in this case) by the shell to filenames.
Have you tried what I've suggested in my earlier post?
Ah ok! You had modified the previous post and I don't see the code.
Now it working fine. BTW, I'm used asterisk because under LOG directory there is the SYNC directory, so I've to use * to take only .DAT files!
Just another question, if the file doesn't exists I need to show it and then copy to SYNC dir (so next time will not be shown). How can I add the copy command to the following line?

sync
SYNC(2) Linux Programmer's Manual SYNC(2)NAME
sync - commit buffer cache to disk
SYNOPSIS
#include <unistd.h>
void sync(void);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
sync(): _BSD_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500
DESCRIPTION
sync() first commits inodes to buffers, and then buffers to disk.
ERRORS
This function is always successful.
CONFORMING TO
SVr4, 4.3BSD, POSIX.1-2001.
NOTES
Since glibc 2.2.2 the Linux prototype is as listed above, following the various standards. In libc4, libc5, and glibc up to 2.2.1 it was
"int sync(void)", and sync() always returned 0.
BUGS
According to the standard specification (e.g., POSIX.1-2001), sync() schedules the writes, but may return before the actual writing is
done. However, since version 1.3.20 Linux does actually wait. (This still does not guarantee data integrity: modern disks have large
caches.)
