Shell Programming and Scripting

Suppose im in a directory A. which has sub-directories x/y/z m/n/p etc. Iam only considered with those which have a file netl.oa at the lowermost level. So i used the find command which gives me a list in the form

Code:

./abc/def/ghi/jkl/netl.oa

and so on
Now i want the names abc def jkl and ghi. My script should goto abc directory and execute a file by giving command dbDump which executes the file dbDump.tdb. Now the contents of dbDump.tdb should be like this (Content of dbDump.tdb file)

Code:

Cellview name 'def' 'ghi' 'jkl'
End Cellview

How do i
1.extract def ghi jki from list
2.place def ghi jkl as shown above
3.save this file with the name dbDump.tdb
4.execute the command dbDump in each directory
I need to write some script for all this work
Guys im new to unix plz plz plz do help me
