Any smarter approach ?
Your post #1 didn't say anything about ignoring lines containing the string END as the code above does, said you wanted output files abc.txt and bcd.txt instead of the files produced by the above code (out. table abc.txt and out. table bcd.txt), will convert any sequence of one or more spaces and/or tabs to a single space character (which is not what I expected from the sample you provided), and is processing a file named input_split.txt instead of the file Input.txt that you said you wanted to process.

To get something closer to what you said you wanted, you might try something more like:
Code:
#!/bin/sh
awk '
/^source table/ {
	if(fn)	close(fn)
	fn = $NF ".txt"
	next
}
{	print > fn
}' Input.txt

You didn't answer my question about what operating system you're using. If you're using a Solaris/SunOS system, change awk to /usr/xpg4/bin/awk or nawk.

ECACCESS-FILE-MOVE(1p)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    ECACCESS-FILE-MOVE(1p)

NAME

       ecaccess-file-move - Move or Rename ECaccess Files

SYNOPSIS

       ecaccess-file-move -version|-help|-manual

       ecaccess-file-move [-debug] source-ecaccess-file target-ecaccess-file

DESCRIPTION

       Allow moving an ECaccess File. When the move occurs within the same ECaccess File System then it is a rename. When the move occurs across
       two different ECaccess File Systems then first a copy is done and then a delete of the original file is done (e.g. similar to ecaccess-
       file-copy ... -erase).

       The source-ecaccess-file and target-ecaccess-file are in the form [domain:][/user-id/]path. Please read the "Shell commands -> File
       Management" section of the "ecaccess" guide for more information on the ECaccess File System.

ARGUMENTS

       source-ecaccess-file
	       The source ECaccess File name.

       target-ecaccess-file
	       The target ECaccess File name.

OPTIONS

       -version
	       Display version number and exits.

       -help   Print a brief help message and exits.

       -manual Prints the manual page and exits.

       -debug  Display the SOAP messages exchanged.

EXAMPLES

       ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt ec:test2.txt

       Rename the test1.txt file in the ECFS directory of the authenticated user in test2.txt.

       ecaccess-file-move ec:test1.txt home:test2.txt

       Copy the test1.txt file from the ECFS directory of the authenticated user to the test2.txt file in the $HOME directory of the authenticated
       user, then delete the test1.txt file from ECFS.
