spacebar is right, but to fulfill your requirement of many files, you need to supply a number of files, like awk '...' DI*.DAT. Depending on your directory structure, you may want to use e.g. find to obtain all filenames applicable.
Then, in your command, only the very last occurrence of Sl.*thickness in the last file will be reported. If there's more of them, adapt your code. To report every single occurrence, make it
Code:
awk '/Sl.*thickness/ {print FILENAME, $3, $NF}' *.DAT

To report the last occurrence in every file, you need to check for file change (e.g. FNR == 1, FILENAME != oldfn) and then print the values out.
