Thanks, yes '>>' works.
As I wrote, I was in the process of writing the script, which needed modifications..Smilie I used the 'awk' as I wanted the output to be in continuous line instead of falling on the other line. I thought, AWK would give me this flexibility, which I am still trying to figure out 'HOW'.

Any input on how the AWK can be used to have the output in single line?

Greetings,
Emily,

I achieved it...Smilie
Not the best script, but it works..
Code:
#!/bin/bash                                                                                                                                                                                                    
OUTPUT=OutPutFile

rm $OUTPUT
for File in *root
do
    if [[ ! -e "dest_path/$File" ]]; then
        NewFile=$(echo $File | awk '{split($0, array, "root"); print array[1]"root"}')
        echo $NewFile | awk '{print}' ORS=' ' >> $OUTPUT
    fi
done
