Hi karthik,
You mean that after 34 posts have been entered into this thread, you're now finally going to tell us what output filenames you want your script to create. We would all have saved ourselves a lot o agony if you had told us the names of the files you wanted to create in post #1 in this thread!

One could, of course, change:
Code:
for f in sampletest_*
  do    TMP="${f/sampletest_/Extrfile}"
         mv "$f" "${TMP%.*}"
echo "$f"
 done

to:
Code:
for f in sampletest_*
do	TMP=${f/sampletest_/Extrfile}
	TMP=${TMP/.xml./_}.xml
	echo mv "$f" "$TMP"
done

and remove the echo if the names match what you're expecting. And, you can modify that to strip off the leading zeros we created for you if you want to, but I'm not going to show you how to do that since I think it would be a mistake that you would later regret (as explained in a couple of earlier posts in this thread). But you'd be much better off changing:
Code:
        if(!length(OUT)) FBASE=FILENAME "."
                else FBASE = OUT "."

        ... ... ...

        FILE=sprintf("%s%04d", FBASE,++FILENUM);

in File_split.awk to just set FILE to the name of the output file you really want to create to begin with instead of creating a bunch of files with the wrong names and adding another loop of code to fix what you did incorrectly the first time.

shtool-path

SHTOOL-PATH.TMP(1)					      GNU Portable Shell Tool						SHTOOL-PATH.TMP(1)

NAME

       shtool-path - GNU shtool command dealing with shell path variables

SYNOPSIS

       shtool path [-s|--suppress] [-r|--reverse] [-d|--dirname] [-b|--basename] [-m|--magic] [-p|--path path] str [str ...]

DESCRIPTION

       This command deals with shell $PATH variables. It can find a program through one or more filenames given by one or more str arguments.  It
       prints the absolute filesystem path to the program displayed on "stdout" plus an exit code of 0 if it was really found.

OPTIONS

       The following command line options are available.

       -s, --suppress
	   Supress output. Useful to only test whether a program exists with the help of the return code.

       -r, --reverse
	   Transform a forward path to a subdirectory into a reverse path.

       -d, --dirname
	   Output the directory name of str.

       -b, --basename
	   Output the base name of str.

       -m, --magic
	   Enable advanced magic search for ""perl"" and ""cpp"".

       -p, --path path
	   Search in path. Default is to search in $PATH.

EXAMPLE

	#   shell script
	awk=`shtool path -p "${PATH}:." gawk nawk awk`
	perl=`shtool path -m perl`
	cpp=`shtool path -m cpp`
	revpath=`shtool path -r path/to/subdir`

HISTORY

       The GNU shtool path command was originally written by Ralf S.  Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 1998 for Apache. It was later taken
       over into GNU shtool.

SEE ALSO

       shtool(1), which(1).
