If I've understood your question correctly then "basename" might help you.
Unix Tip: Stripping file extensions with the basename command | ITworld

if it's the other way you want. try
Code:
file=”somefile.ext”
echo “filename: ${file%.*}”
echo “extension: ${file#*.}”

I need to check those extension files from the log daily(i.e for the current date) and should send those etxension names to a textfile/flatfile.

I'm sorry. Perhaps I don't understand the question. so you have a log file for a given date, today. You want your output to be all files that have the extension (dat,errdat,ctl)? Can't you just use a simple yet crude method like grep?
