Multiple if within while loop ksh

Hi All,

I'm trying to write while loop with multiple if conditions. Each and every if condition with different variables. whenever one if condition fails i have remove the file
from filename and have to pick another file and loop should exit until the last file found in filename. Please help how to write a ksh shell script for that. Below i have given code what i tried

Thanks in advance.!!!

example:
Code:
#### here filename contain XXXX_YYYY_ZZZZ_DDD.txt as example
while read filename
#splitting a file without extension
full_filename=$filename
noextension=${full_filename%.*}
extension="${full_filename##*.}"

####assigning a patterns to different variable

echo "$noextension"|awk -F'_' '{ print NF-1 }' > countpattern

##### First fi######
if [ "$countpattern" -eq 5 ] ; then
A=$(echo $noextension|cut -d'_' -f1)
B=$(echo $noextension|cut -d'_' -f2)
C=$(echo $noextension|cut -d'_' -f3)
D=$(echo $noextension|cut -d'_' -f4)
E=$(echo $noextension|cut -d'_' -f5)
fi

####Second If########
if [ ! $extension=txt-a $A=HELP] || [ ! $extension=csv -a ! A =HELP ]
then
UPDATE TABLE ########################
rm full_filename
fi

####third if#####
if [ ! $C = "WE" ]
then
UPDATE TABLE ########################
rm full_filename
fi

touch - Sets access and modification time of file

SYNOPSIS
bool touch (string $filename, [int $time = time()], [int $atime]) DESCRIPTION
Attempts to set the access and modification times of the file named in the $filename parameter to the value given in $time. Note that the access time is always modified, regardless of the number of parameters. If the file does not exist, it will be created. PARAMETERS
o $filename - The name of the file being touched. o $time - The touch time. If $time is not supplied, the current system time is used. o $atime - If present, the access time of the given filename is set to the value of $atime. Otherwise, it is set to the value passed to the $time parameter. If neither are present, the current system time is used. RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure. CHANGELOG

' modification time has been changed to present time'; } else { echo 'Sorry, could not change modification time of ' . $filename; } ?> Example #2 touch(3) using the $time parameter <?php // This is the touch time, we'll set it to one hour in the past. $time = time() - 3600; // Touch the file if (!touch('some_file.txt', $time)) { echo 'Whoops, something went wrong...'; } else { echo 'Touched file with success'; } ?> NOTES
Note Note that time resolution may differ from one file system to another. Warning Prior to PHP 5.3.0 it was not possible to change the modification time of a directory with this function under Windows. PHP Documentation Group TOUCH(3)
