Not enough information.
What Operating System and version you you have? If this this Solaris, try "nawk" not "awk".
What Shell are you using?
What was the original command line?
What is in the file /home/fnsw/bin/stpprnt.awk ?

Operating System is HP-UX and the shell is K-sh..

Original Command line is copying the contents of /home/fnsw/bin/stpprnt.awk to some other location (/fnsw/local/coldin/CO_IBS*)

I created the file stpprnt.awk and it is empty.

I got the errors like
Code:
+ awk -f /home/fnsw/bin/stpprnt.awk
+ 1> /fnsw/local/coldin/CO_IB1Spanish.1201130608
 syntax error The source line is 1.
 The error context is
                created >>>  : <<<
 awk: Quitting
 The source line is 1.

Now is it clear?

I would say (from the error message) that the file /home/fnsw/bin/stpprnt.awk contains
created : on line 1 ... this isn't a valid awk program.
