first of all echo is not required in
Code:
for file in `echo $LIST_OF_FILES`

just make sure you are in the same dir where the files are or use absoulte path and you can pass files to the loop as
Code:
for file in file1 file2 file3----- fileN

now coming to the function

Code:
#!/bin/ksh

create_file()
{
logfilename=`echo $1|cut -d"." -f1`

source=`echo $1 | cut -d"_" -f1`
file_type=`echo $1 | cut -d"_" -f1`
num_rec=`wc -l $1 | awk '{print $1}'`
bytes=``wc -c $1 | awk '{print $1}'`

printf "SOURCE=${source}\nFILE_TYPE=${file_type}\nNUM_REC=${num_rec}\nBYTES=${bytes}\nDELIMETER=\"|\"\nFLAG=\"E\"" > ${logfilename}.txt

}


for file in xyz_meta_20110501_00000789.tar abc_dat_20110501_00000789.tar
do
file_name=`basename $file` ## this is not required unless you are using absolute path
create_file $file_name
done

this will create your log files as
Code:
xyz_meta_20110501_00000789.txt
abc_dat_20110501_00000789.txt
